Friends of the Sherwood Public Library was formally defined and organized by librarian Lavern Will and the Sherwood Public Library Board of Trustees on April 2, 1975. Friends was founded to encourage voluntary service for the city library, and to provide materials, equipment and services for the library beyond the reach of the library's regular budget.

These activities are funded from the sale of used books at the annual Book Sale and the Book Cart located in the public library, by donations, memorials, and Friends of the Sherwood Library membership dues; and by the sale of library T-shirts and book bags.

We encourage all individuals who enjoy the facilities and services offered by the Sherwood Library to join the Friends of the Library.
