Actor Jason Schwartzman spoke with the New York Times recently about 10 things he can’t live without, and included along with the Los Angeles Dodgers and helping his daughter with her homework is his library card. He said libraries are where he finds peace.
Hennepin County (Minn.) Library (HCL) has released a new library card to honor the iconic musician Prince, who lived in Chanhassen, Minnesota, until his death in 2016. The new card corresponds with the opening of the new Prince musical, “Purple Rain.”
New York Public Library (NYPL) and Queens Public Library (QPL) are recognizing the 50th anniversary of hip-hop with a slew of programs and events, and we’re particularly excited about their limited-edition library cards that celebrate the genre and New York City’s role in making it a global cultural movement.
