Description

This session will be a presentation by one of the creators of the Pittsburgh Novel Project. The Project is an annotated bibliography of all known fiction and drama with a significant use of Pittsburgh or Western Pennsylvania as a location. Works in the Project date back as far as 1792 and continue through 2022. Jake Oresick will share how the books on the list were selected, the project of describing and cataloging every work, and demonstrate how readers can use the site to find their perfect Pittsburgh Novel.
