The Smart Start Network understands the importance of getting lots of books to as many young children as possible. The NC Partnership for Children and the Smart Start network are working hard to secure the funding to resume Dolly Parton Imagination Library (DPIL) registrations.

Currently, Orange County Partnership for Young Children is providing DPIL to as many children as our state funding will allow. So, we are not able to accept new registrations after February 1, 2025. Children already registered will continue to receive books. For updates, click here- https://www.smartstart.org/dolly-partons-imagination-library/

If you registered for DPIL before February 1, 2025 and need to update your address, please contact Jaida Grant, Admin Associate, at (984) 677-2215 or jgrant@orangesmartstart.org
