Today we're remembering the incredible impact Dolly Parton has had on libraries and on children’s love of reading through her Imagination Library. Her commitment to putting books into the hands of children has inspired generations of young readers.

Check out a book from our Imagination Library collection or color a special coloring page celebrating 30 years of inspiring children through the joy of books.

Thank you, Dolly, for helping make books and imagination accessible to children everywhere!
