Some things never go out of style.

For generations, Louisville children have spent their summers reading, exploring and discovering something new at the Library. Summer Reading is one of the books, programs and experiences that make LFPL a true Louisville classic.

And one week from today, you can help keep the classics strong.
On September 10, every Give for Good gift to the Library Foundation will be matched dollar for dollar up to $25,000.

What’s your Library classic?

Yesterday, LFPL celebrated Dolly Day! 💕 Library staff dressed up to honor the life, music and legacy of Dolly Parton. That could mean anything from sequins and blonde wigs to western wear, or simply showing off a favorite book-themed T-shirt. However they celebrated, our staff brought a little Dolly-inspired sparkle to the library!

There’s always room for more sparkle, more kindness and more books. 📚
