About Jacinto City Branch Library

Hello! My name is Nyla Vela (she/they), and I am the branch manager of the Jacinto City Branch Library.

I have worked at libraries in both Indiana and Texas where I have fostered a deep love and passion for librarianship. I truly believe that libraries can be mitigators of social disparities through equitable programming and inclusivity within our doors.

My goal as a manager is to continue to foster a bustling community here at the Jacinto City Branch Library and provide resources that fulfill the unique needs of its residents. In my free time, I enjoy being outside, watching anime, playing guitar, and reading. If you have a question or comment, please feel free to email me or call 832-927-5520.
