ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
What is the Imagination Library? Through this remarkable early childhood literacy program, any child who lives in St. Joseph County can receive a FREE, new, age-appropriate book by mail once a month, from birth until they turn five—no strings attached!
There are two ways to register a child for the Imagination Library in St. Joseph County:
- Online at http://www.cfsjc.org/imaginationlibrary or
- by filling out a paper registration form, available at any library in St. Joseph County
Once a child is registered, he or she will receive the first Imagination Library book within seven to nine weeks through the US mail. After that, a book will arrive every month until the child’s fifth birthday, when he or she “graduates” from the program. Since the program began in May 2018, more than 7,750 children in St. Joseph County have enrolled in this free program.
