MADISON — The Board of Commissioners of Public Lands approved a State Trust Fund Loan totaling $150,000 to the town of Brooklyn to finance roadwork.

The BCPL operates entirely on program revenue, without taxpayer money and distributes more than 96 cents of every dollar of interest earned on BCPL State Trust Fund investments to Wisconsin’s public schools. The 2018 earnings of $35.7 million are the sole source of state funding for K-12 public school library materials. 

A list of 2018 library aid received by each public school district is available at http://bcpl.wisconsin.gov/docview.asp?docid=28530&locid=145.
