Dolly Parton's Imagination Library

A book gifting program that mails high-quality books to children from birth to age five, no matter their family’s income, every month, at no cost to the child’s family.

Books are 100% free to enrolled children who live in Middletown because Russell Library has secured funds to cover the cost of the books and the shipping fees.

Life without a library card is like a cat in the bath... sad. It doesn't have to be this way.
