New Mexico Reads!

New Mexico Reads is a reading and literacy campaign promoted and sponsored by the NMLA to celebrate the literary and artistic talent of New Mexico. Promoting reading and literacy to improve individual lives, prepares children, teenagers, and adults for the challenges of today and the future by empowering individuals to achieve their greatest potential throughout life.

New Mexican authors or artists agreed to pose with one or more of their books or images associated with them in a photo that may be downloaded and used in a poster. Brief biographies of the authors are also available to use in promoting various authors in your library. The New Mexico Reads graphic art logos are also available. Check this site often as more authors and artists post their photos and logos.
