The Dolly Parton Imagination Library provides one book each month to children in Olmsted County from 
birth to age 5 whose parents register to receive them. These sturdy, colorful, age appropriate books are delivered directly to the child. Each book is selected for the developmental benefits it brings - and for the fun. There is no cost to the family.
In addition to the Dollywood Foundation, we are partnering with Olmsted County Public Health, Friends of the Rochester Public Library, the United States Postal Service, and a growing list of organizations and agencies throughout Olmsted County to register kids into the program.
Any child from birth to age five who is a resident of Olmsted County is eligible to receive books.
Since the launch of the Imagination Library partnership in June 2006, over 120,000 books have been delivered to children in Olmsted County.
