A legacy of literacy for all.

ALA is heartbroken at the passing of country music legend, cultural icon, and champion of literacy Dolly Parton.

Dolly’s award-winning Imagination Library initiative, inspired by her father’s inability to read or write, has put hundreds of millions of free books into the hands of children across America and was considered by her to be one of her greatest achievements.

“We’re giving books to kids who wouldn’t have a chance to get them otherwise,” she told American Libraries in a 2018 interview. “A lot of people think this is just for poor children—it’s for all children. It’s important to get books into the hands of any child that we can.”

ALA was proud to confer Dolly with an honorary lifetime membership, the Association’s highest honor, in 2023 for her lasting impact on librarianship, libraries, and the communities they serve.

Dolly was also part of ALA’s Celebrity READ campaign, in which she holds a copy of 'The Little Engine That Could.'

“I’ve always related to that book because I’m the little engine that did!” she said.

Thank you, Dolly. ❤️

Is it too late to sign up for the summer reading program at Grove City Library? It is not! Maybe you just moved to town. Maybe you were too busy in June and July. Maybe you're ready to practice reading again before school starts. Stop in anytime in the first half of August and sign up the kids, ages 3-18. Want a reading challenge for adults? We have that, too!

Adult reading logs are due by August 14. Kids' summer reading sheets are due by August 31. Bring them in and claim your prizes!
