What is Imagination Library?
Imagination Library means books in the hands of every young child to read and keep for their very own. It means parents, older brothers or sisters, grandparents, babysitters and others reading, talking and enjoying books together with the children in their lives.
Children enrolled receive a new, age-appropriate, hard cover book sent to them at their home each month. The program is offered to families at no cost.
Imagination Library is funded locally by individual donations from parents and other community members, corporate gifts and special grants. A child can be sponsored for $35 per year. Imagination Library works to build community support for children during the formative years that influence their entire lives with the goal of helping all children be prepared for success in school and life.
Who is eligible?
Children from birth up to their 5th birthday. Their parent or guardian must live in the Imagination Library of Delaware Service area.
When will my child receive books?
After registering, the first book takes about eight to ten weeks to arrive at your home. Books will arrive monthly until the child’s 5th birthday.
