AN INVENTORY OF NEW DEAL PRODUCED WRITINGS This is a list of New Deal-produced writings, arranged alphabetically by state and by title. Some of these writings went to press and were published—and thus may be available at libraries, or from online sellers, or from online repositories like Hathitrust—and some might only be available at archival institutions, especially the Library of Congress’s Federal Writers’ Project collection. Periodically, we’ll be adding more items to this list. The following resources have been utilized to create this inventory: 1. Evanell K. Powell, WPA Writers' Publications: A Complete Bibliographic Checklist and Price Guide of Items, Major and Minor, of the Federal Writers' Project and Program, Palm Beach, FL: 1976. 2.
