Summary
The Beaver Island District Library Board of Trustees reported in January 2022 that an endowment established in August 2021 had raised $7,000, largely from sales of wooden book spines. The board had authorized wood-burning equipment for BICS students to make the spines, with a possible related book sculpture and future adult participation under discussion.
