Thanks for the mention, April Monterrosa!
It's National Library Week, celebrating the impact libraries have in transforming lives and strengthening communities.
Here in San Antonio, Imagination Library of San Antonio, a partner of Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, is doing just that—providing free monthly books to children ages birth to 5.
Since launching in August 2024, ILSA has already reached over 1,000 children. The best way to celebrate this week is by signing up and helping grow the next generation of readers. For more info: https://imaginationlibrarysa.org/
