North Spencer County School Corporation receives $12,026 from library endowment
Summary
Representatives of the North Spencer County School Corporation Library Endowment presented the corporation with a check for $12,026; the endowment's funds are divided among district libraries and used primarily to purchase print materials.
At the first regular board meeting of October 2025, the North Spencer County School Corporation Library Endowment presented the corporation with a check for $12,026.
A library endowment representative described how the funds are distributed: the endowment gives the funds to the district treasurer, who divides the money into six portions and then district/library staff allocate funds for materials. The representative said most of the money is used for printed books despite the district's digital resources: "All the requests that I get, they always still want to have that print book," the representative said. The board arranged to have a photograph taken to mark the presentation.
The board accepted the donation as part of the meeting's opening agenda; no formal vote beyond the ceremonial presentation was recorded.
