Dolly's Legacy Lives Through Books | Colorado Springs News

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is transforming lives—one book at a time, with Pueblo County leading the charge since 2022 by distributing over 147,000 books to kids. Inspired by Dolly’s own childhood and her father’s illiteracy, this global initiative has gifted more than 332 million books worldwide, reaching millions across the U.S., Canada, the UK, Australia, and Ireland. In Colorado alone, over 92,000 children are enrolled—with 3,400 in Pueblo. Even after Dolly’s passing, community support surged, proving her impact endures. The Pueblo City-County Library District still welcomes donations to keep her legacy alive, one child, one story, at a time.
