Teen Library Card Contest

Announcing the Teen Library Card Contest Winners

Santa Clara teens shared their creativity and vision by answering the question: “What does the Santa Clara City Library mean to you?” Through their artwork, they captured the spirit of community, learning, and imagination that makes our library so special. The votes are in for our Teen Library Card Design Contest!

We're happy to announce the two designs that received the most votes will be available as our new Teen Library Cards, launching this May. Stay tuned to see it in action — get your own limited edition card and celebrate the creativity of our community!
