El Paso libraries unveil limited-edition library card
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) – El Paso Public Libraries are celebrating Library Card Sign-Up Month with a new limited-edition library card featuring original artwork by local artist and illustrator Zeke Peña.
Library Card Sign-Up Month is celebrated nationwide through September. It highlights the value of libraries and encourages people of all ages to discover all the available items obtained with a library card.
“A library card may be small enough to fit in your wallet, but the opportunities it provides are endless,” said Public Libraries Director Norma Martinez.
From books and digital resources to technology, educational opportunities and programs, the library card connects the community to free resources.
This year, Peña’s original artwork brings his distinctive borderland style to the library card.
“Having Zeke Peña’s artwork on our library card makes it even more special because it represents our community and gives El Pasoans something they can be proud to carry while staying connected to their library,” Martinez said.
