Jessilen Henderson, a bookseller and floor manager at Maria's Bookshop in Durango, Colo., has been awarded a scholarship to attend the Denver Publishing Institute this summer. A collaboration of the Book Industry Charitable Foundation, Sourcebooks, and the DPI, the scholarship includes tuition, room, and board, and up to $2,000 to cover travel and replacement wages.
"I am both thrilled and astonished to be the recipient of this incredible honor," said Henderson. "I'm unendingly grateful for everything Binc does to support booksellers. It is such a joy to feel that I can set financial worries aside and focus entirely on learning everything that the Denver Publishing Institute has to offer. I can't wait to immerse myself in this incredible educational opportunity. Thank you, Binc!"
