The Villanueva Library is one of several "David Cargo" libraries within the state of New Mexico. These libraries bear the name of former New Mexico governor David Cargo, whose support for libraries and their mission provided start-up assistance for several rural community libraries within the state. Mr. Cargo served in the New Mexico House of Representatives and later as governor of the state. In addition to establishing and promoting libraries in remote rural regions, Cargo also established the New Mexico state film commission.
