Burbank Public Library Unveils Exclusive Nickelodeon Library Card Designs for National Library Card Sign-up Month

Burbank, CA (August 28, 2026) – This September, Burbank Public Library is introducing three exclusive library card designs featuring iconic Nickelodeon franchises, as part of the Library's celebration of National Library Card Sign-up Month.

In partnership with Nickelodeon Our World, the brand’s initiative to empower kids on their journey to building life skills, the limited-edition Burbank Public Library cards feature artwork from the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Teeny Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The special-edition cards will be available beginning in September as part of National Library Card Sign-up Month, an annual campaign that celebrates the power of a library card as a gateway to discovery, learning, and entertainment.

“This partnership is a wonderful example of the creativity that makes Burbank such a special community,” said Mayor Tamala Takahashi. “By bringing together our Library with the imagination and storytelling of Nickelodeon, we’re creating a fun new way for residents to connect with all the Library has to offer.”

"We're thrilled to partner with Nickelodeon Our World to offer these exciting new library card designs," said Eric Lashley, Burbank Library Services Director. "These cards celebrate characters that generations have grown up with while reminding our community that a library card unlocks a world of stories, creativity, and lifelong learning."

Observed each September, National Library Card Sign-up Month encourages people of all ages to discover the many benefits of a library card. At Burbank Public Library, a library card provides free access to books, movies, music, eBooks, audiobooks, online learning resources, research databases, study room reservations, the Spark! Digital Media Lab, and many more services and resources throughout the year.

The Nickelodeon library cards will be available at all Burbank Public Library locations beginning in September, while supplies last. New patrons may choose one of the special-edition designs when signing up for a library card, while current cardholders may exchange their existing card for one of the new designs.
