Tested November 2026
Every remaining line of the checklist was run, and each returns a negative or a pointer. Novelists: no novelist born, raised or resident in North Liberty was found in the sources reached — negative. Poetry: no published poet with a town tie was found — negative; the campus-poetry succession of the larger cities has no analogue here, there being no campus. Children's, young-reader, nature and field-guide writing: none found — negative. Screenwriters born here: none found; the town's screen names, Marci Miller and the actor Jay Beyers (carried in the people record as a North Liberty–raised actor), are performers, and no writing credit for either appears in the record reached. Comics authorship: none found — negative. The public-official-as-memoirist line: no memoir by a North Liberty officeholder was found — negative. The local shelf — picture books, museum books, small-press and self-published work by townspeople — could not be swept whole from the sources reached and stands as a named gap; its settler is the St. Joseph County Public Library's local-authors holdings at the North Liberty branch, shelf by shelf.
