We were sad to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton. Stop by Newton Public Library and see our display of books and movies by, about, and inspired by her.

Dolly leaves an inspiring legacy. One part of that legacy we particularly appreciate is Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, which has fostered a love of reading by mailing millions of free books to young children around the world. For more information, and to sign kids up for the program in Harvey and Marion counties, contact United Way of Harvey and Marion Counties or go to uwhmc.org/dolly-parton-s-imagination-library.
