  • Program 3 [2020]

    The Friends of the Seattle Public Library advocate on behalf of The Seattle Public Library. The Friends educate and inform its members, library patrons and the greater Seattle community about the Library, its services and the issues that it faces. The Friends support the Library's efforts to create lifelong readers through its Books For Teachers program. Due to the pandemic, the usual distribution of books for this program could not take place in 2020 but will be resumed in 2021. Through its surplus book program, the Friends gave books to 39 community organizations in Seattle, including food banks, health clinics, homeless shelters, children's programs, education organizations, and many others.
