The Nysether Family Collection


The Nysether Family Collection, part of the More to Explore Endowment, expands and enhances the basic collections of Sno-Isle Libraries. Brothers Mark and Brad Nysether and their families established the fund in honor of their parents, Eldon and Shirley Nysether. Every year, the Nysethers select a topic that allows us to bring in new and exciting materials for all to enjoy.
