Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library Now Available in Every Kentucky Community

For the first time, every preschool child in Kentucky can have the gift of reading delivered to their home.

(Frankfort, Ky.) – Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear announced this week the statewide expansion of the Dolly Parton Imagination Library.

For the first time, every preschool child in Kentucky can have the gift of reading delivered to their home, building a love of books that can last a lifetime.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library mails a free, age-appropriate book to children each month from birth to age 5 and has been shown to have a significant positive impact on kindergarten readiness.

The program partners with local 501© (3) or governmental organizations to register children in their area, and with the addition of the Kenton County Public Library in June, every community in the commonwealth is now served by a local partner.

“My administration will always put education first, and that starts with putting books in the hands of our youngest learners,” said Gov. Andy Beshear. “As Governor, and as a dad, I’m proud that Team Kentucky has come together to reach this historic milestone for our kids. I hope parents and guardians across the commonwealth will sign their kids up for the Imagination Library today. Thank you to Dolly Parton and every local partner for your investment in Kentucky’s children.”
