The annual ‘Wish Tree Book’ program is in full swing with the Friends of the Seward Library. A Holiday tree is decorated with ‘Wish Tree Book’ cards, and are available to Seward Library Museum patrons and Seward community to sponsor books for the children’s, youth and young adult shelves. In 2018, the Friends goal of 100 new books was met, through generous community sponsorship. Twenty dollars per book, sponsors may choose more than one book, there is no limit. We are looking to meet and exceed our goal of 100 new books for Seward’s youth this year. With three locations for sponsorship cards to be picked up:
