One of the Camden County Library System’s two delivery vans displays a colorful makeover designed by a New Jersey artist whose work has been featured, used and exhibited nationally.
The colorful illustration adorning the van conveys all the possibilities libraries represent and captures the spirit of the library’s motto, “Dream, Explore, Imagine.”
“I think the van illustration is a wonderful way to get the public’s attention and advertise what our libraries have to offer. Its colorful presence on our local roadways is a welcome sight this spring after the long, hard winter we’ve all endured. It’s an invitation and a reminder to visit your local library,” explains Linda Devlin as Director of the Camden County Library System.
