2022 Library Card Designs

In late 2021 we held a public vote to pick three new library card designs to add to our selection. Traversing into Wonder by Miguel Angel Almeida, Reading Time with ‘Readworthy’ by Julia Green, and A Paper Fairyland by Beth and Cate Williamson received the highest number of votes and were printed in January 2022. They are available now at all Library locations, and you can read more about the artists and designs below.   

Traversing into Wonder

Miguel Angel Almeida's card design was inspired by the joy and adventure books can bring to children, teenagers and adults. The style and bright colors reflect Mexican architecture, ceramics, and clothing, celebrating his Latinx/e community.

Reading Time with Readworthy

Julia Green credits the Library as her earliest inspiration to draw and paint. Julia hopes her illustration of Readworthy reminds people of what inspired them as children and encourages them to look back at those early memories to help inspire them today.

A Paper Fairyland

Childhood fairy tales inspired sisters Beth and Cate Williamson to design this intricately crafted paper scene. The interplay of light and shadows create an atmosphere of wonder, indicative of the imaginative spark that reading brings to each life.
