New VPL Author Bag - A Perfect, Affordable Gift
(Vancouver, British Columbia.) – Vancouver Public Library has created a second great limited-edition reusable bag. This courier-style bag has room for a laptop, water bottle, cell phone and more!
Perfect for the literary minded, this limited-edition bag features the image of Nobel Prize-winning author Samuel Beckett. Designed by the Library’s graphics staff, the stylish black bag with white trim was declared a winner by male and female Library staff who participated in the design process.
“The company that makes our distinctive multilingual book bag tells us it is among the bestselling of branded bags,” says Marketing and Communications Manager Jean Kavanagh. “We are thrilled the carry bag is so popular and we also felt that a more modern courier-style bag would perhaps better appeal to men – though many female Library staff love it too.”
Like the original book bag, the courier-style bag is made from recyclable Polyfabric™ and is water resistant and non-allergenic. It features a thermal liner to keep drinks cool or hot and pockets for a cell phone and water bottle. The bag is priced at an affordable $8.

“We have produced a limited-edition run of 2000 bags with the Beckett image and if the bags prove popular, we will feature another author on the second run,” Kavanagh said.
Like the multilingual book bags, the courier-style author bags are available at all Library branches and at book’mark: The Library Store located adjacent to the Central Library at the downtown Library Square.
