Pflugerville Library Board adopts 'Flash the Firefly' as official mascot
Summary
The Pflugerville Library Board voted unanimously to adopt Flash the Firefly as the library's official mascot after a brief discussion about names, a digital-first rollout and review by the communications director or city manager.
The Pflugerville Library Board voted unanimously to adopt “Flash the Firefly” as the library’s official mascot during its February meeting.
The chair moved to accept Flash the Firefly and a second was recorded; the board approved the motion by voice vote. “We’ve got a mascot,” the chair said after the vote.
Board members discussed keeping the mascot name gender-neutral and starting with a digital identity — a logo and branded assets to be used in Canva and on promotions — before pursuing an in-person mascot presence. Staff noted any final design or in-person use may require review by the communications director and possibly city council.
Members suggested engaging communications staff in the next steps and considered a student or community contest as one option for design input. The board directed staff to contact the city communications office and proceed with coordination for rollout and promotional materials.
The vote was unanimous; no recorded roll-call tally by name was provided in the transcript. The board did not set a deadline for final design approvals and indicated it will return to the topic if city review is required.
