Hennepin County Library's most borrowed books of 2022
The end of the year is often a time of reflection. At Hennepin County Library, we’re reflecting on our year of reading, and book checkouts. Of the 10 million checkouts across the Hennepin County Library system in 2022, below are the most borrowed titles. “We love to read about Minnesota, and we love local authors,” said Katy Schulz, senior librarian in collections and technical services. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a top titles list without William Kent Krueger or John Sandford (usually both!); they are joined by Louise Erdrich whenever she has a new book.”
