Now that @angelcitypress is part of the Los Angeles Public Library, we’ve updated the logo to represent this new chapter. The redesigned logo features the torch that sits atop Central Library’s pyramid tower, symbolizing the “Light of Learning” that inspired Bertram Goodhue’s design of that building. The flame represents the knowledge that is passed from one generation to another, a mission that is at the forefront of our minds as we celebrate a new partnership. #lapl #lapubliclibrary #losangele
