💔 RIP to the Greatest Library Friend there ever was. Thank you,Dolly.

We join the rest of you in mourning the passing of Dolly Parton, an absolute entertainment legend and tireless supporter of literacy for over 31 years. Many thanks to our partners, Virginia Early Learning Partners and Hanover Rotary Club for making this invaluable resource available to children in our area.

Dolly Parton's family asked that, in lieu of flowers, fans make a donation to the singer's Imagination Library, which you can support locally at https://vaelp.org/ and https://hanoverrotary.org
