To commemorate the New York State Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial, the New York State Library, in partnership with the New York Library Association’s Youth Services Section and School Library Media Section, has created four selected reading lists that celebrate the history, culture, and diversity of New York State.
Librarians who work with children and teens in both public libraries and school libraries across the State collaborated to select age-appropriate titles for recreational reading. The lists are not comprehensive; rather they are designed to provide a “flavor” of New York State and to spark an interest in the diversity and history of the state.
Each of the four lists covers one reader age group: Picture Books; Elementary; Tween; and Teen and up.
Books marked "Braille format" and "Recorded format" are noted for use by students who have a disability which affects their use of print materials. The books with these notations are available for loan to eligible students and schools.
Information on the three libraries in New York State that lend books in these formats through the National Library Service for the Blind & Physically Handicapped, Library of Congress program.
For children, teen, and family activities related to New York State history, culture, and diversity, see the Statewide Summer Reading Program web site.

The Statewide Summer Reading Program is supported by Federal Library Services and Technology Act funds, awarded to the New York State Library by the Federal Institute of Museum and Library Services.
