"SACRAMENTO — Today Governor Gavin Newsom, joined by First Partner Jennifer
Siebel Newsom, Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, State Senator Shannon
Grove, State Librarian Greg Lucas, and The Dollywood Foundation, announced that
California is launching the statewide expansion of Dolly Parton’s Imagination
Library. The expansion, made possible by bipartisan legislation SB 1183 (Grove)
— which was signed into law by Governor Newsom last year — allows all
California children under the age of five to be eligible to enroll in the
program to receive a free book every month in the mail. The program is
currently active in areas across 30 counties in California and this expansion
is expected to fully cover the entire state by 2028."
