Bio

Hello, my name is Ziba Pérez and I’ve worked with the Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL) as a Young Adult Librarian since 2017. Previous to that I worked for the Long Beach Public Library (LBPL) as a Senior Librarian. I am a zine enthusiast and helped create a circulating zine collection at LBPL as well as LAPL. For four years I helped organize Long Beach Zine Fest and am currently helping to organize L.A. Zine Fest 2023. As a member of the California Library Association, I co-chaired the 2022 Beatty Award committee which had the pleasure of awarding our first YA Award in Literature to Malinda Lo for Last Night at the Telegraph Club. I am also an active member of the Los Angeles Chapter of REFORMA.
