Beginning in 1995, the island of Montserrat in the West Indies experienced a volcanic eruption that made much of the land in the south part of the island uninhabitable. Elizabeth Salt, after having studied about Montserrat while pursuing a master’s degree in anthropology at The Ohio State University, wanted to support the island’s recovery. She contacted the Montserrat Red Cross, which put her in touch with the island’s librarian. Elizabeth, a librarian herself, developed a relationship that allowed her to help support rebuilding the materials collection for the island’s library. Montserratians value education, and as a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean, often send students to the United States and other countries for post-secondary education. Although the library on Montserrat has been relocated and now operates normally, Ms. Salt continues to support higher education for the island’s students through this annual scholarship.
