The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed over $2 million to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
Apparently there is some odd stuff with how libraries order books - through certain wholesalers. A very specific industry business model that I don't know anything about, but apparently a tough, low-margin market that is over our collective heads to try and reach, at least with our first printing of this edition.
That said, I imagine it can't hurt at all to go talk to your librarian, and at least ask them to order a copy directly from https://phishcompanion.com/
