The Beaver Island Historical Society is looking for volunteers to help fill docent shifts at both the Print Shop Museum and the Marine Museum this summer. Docents welcome visitors, share island stories, and help keep our museums open and vibrant. No experience is needed. We will provide guidance and support. Even one shift makes a difference. Please consider giving a few hours this summer to help celebrate and share Beaver Island’s history. 448-2254 or director@beaverislandhistory.org"

A logo features several green map-like silhouettes outlined in white, with a large central shape behind bold black lettering. Cursive lettering below reads “Keeping Island History Alive,” and a small line of text reads “Established 1957.”
A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Community source, no stated terms; published non-commercially with attribution and a link to the original post.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.
Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.
Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
