Wyoming imagination library program.
This bill establishes Wyoming's Imagination Library Program, providing free age-appropriate books monthly to children aged 0-5 in participating counties. It requires counties to contribute 50% of program costs to the state education department, which manages funds and matches state appropriations. The program, funded by a $320,000 state appropriation (effective July 2025), aims to foster early literacy through local county-based affiliate programs and public awareness campaigns. Families receive books at no cost, with the state education department coordinating nonprofit partnerships to administer the initiative statewide.
