Thank you to Colette for designing this stunning memento!
The first line highlights that we are celebrating the 250th birthday of America!
The second line highlights that we are celebrating the 150th birthday of the American Library Association (housed in Chicago).
The third line highlights that we have had libraries in the City of Seymour since 1901!
Kaarina Menting joked that we missed something as she will be 50 years old this year, haha.
There is so much to be grateful for and so much to celebrate!
The Seymour Historical Society has a milestone, too. They are celebrating 50 years in existence this year!
They have a special anniversary event planned on Saturday, June 20, 2026. Congratulations!
Additionally, the Outagamie Waupaca Library System has a milestone. Another 50 year tenure! Our partners in Infosoup/Owlsnet, the Nicolet Federated Library System is celebrating a 50 year birthday in 2026 as well. It is amazing to think of all of these entities and what they have contributed to the world! Hurray!
