Sequins, songs, and a whole lot of smarts filled the room on March 23, 2026, as the Imagination Library of Montgomery County (ILMC) hosted its very first Trivia Night Fundraiser—an evening dedicated to laughter, community, and a shared love of reading (with a little help from Dolly Parton).

Six spirited teams—Clueless in Clarksville, Parton Partners, The Wingnuts, The Outliers, Hard Candy Christmas, and Augustine—put their knowledge to the test, tackling trivia questions all about the iconic Dolly Parton. From her middle name to her Tennessee roots and famous family ties, no rhinestone was left unturned.

The evening was hosted by ILMC Board Chair Bobette Bouton and her husband, Nathan Martin, who kept the crowd engaged with challenging questions and plenty of lighthearted moments.

“It’s our 20th year celebrating ILMC in Montgomery County, so we want to do all we can to recognize this milestone and bring the community into the mix,” said Bouton. “This was a fun and easy way to raise funding—and we’re already looking forward to hosting more trivia nights in the future.”

The event was made even more special thanks to the generous support of Strawberry Alley Ale Works, which provided its upstairs space for the evening. Owner Wes Cunningham and his team have long been champions of the Imagination Library’s mission to put books into the hands of young readers.

In total, the inaugural event raised approximately $800—funds that will go directly toward providing free, high-quality books to children across Montgomery County, helping spark imagination and build a foundation for lifelong learning.

For two decades, ILMC has been delivering the joy of reading to local families, one book at a time. And if Trivia Night proved anything, it’s that this community is ready to keep the story going.

The North Branch of the Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library is now home to a new self-service Vehicle Registration Renewal Kiosk, made possible through a partnership with Montgomery County Clerk, Teresa Cottrell. This collaboration brings an essential county service directly into the community, making it as easy as SCAN, PAY, PRINT, and GO.

Located inside the North Branch at 435 Jordan Road, the kiosk allows customers to renew their vehicle registration without visiting the County Clerk’s main office at Veterans Plaza. By placing this service at the North branch, the Library and the Clerk’s Office are working together to better serve the citizens of Montgomery County. 

Using the kiosk is quick and easy. Customers simply scan their renewal card or current registration, confirm their vehicle, and pay with a debit or credit card. Once the transaction is complete, the updated registration and renewal decal print immediately at the kiosk.

Kiosk renewal requirements include: 

• Vehicle(s) must be registered in Montgomery County
• User must have a renewal card or current registration
• Renewal must be within 90 days of expiration

The Vehicle Renewal Kiosk is available during regular North Branch Library hours: Monday-Thursday 9 am - 8 pm; Friday-Saturday 9 am - 6 pm; and Sunday 1 pm - 5 pm.

Flags at all Montgomery County and City of Clarksville government offices and facilities will be lowered to half-staff through Friday, April 3, in memory of the two Kenwood Middle School students who tragically lost their lives on March 27, 2026, and in support of those who were injured.

We stand together as a community, grieving and supporting one another in this incredibly difficult time.

“Our hearts are with the entire Kenwood Middle School and every member of our community grieving during this difficult time. We lift up every family, student, educator, and first responder in our thoughts and prayers, asking for comfort, strength, and hope as we come together to support one another and begin to heal. And we extend our gratitude to Carroll County and the surrounding communities’ emergency services for their swift response and support during this tragedy,” said Montgomery County Mayor, Wes Golden

“As we go about the course of our daily lives and responsibilities during this Holy Week on the calendar — in itself, a time for deep reflection, we do so with profound sadness and immeasurable grief for the two lives lost on Friday from Kenwood Middle School, the impact of injuries to others affected by the tragedy, and the permanent, emotional scars from these events for everyone close to, or affected by this event in every way,” said Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts. 

“This week and beyond will be changed for all of us, and in such times, it is vital that we join hands in unity and peace, to support one another through encouragement and prayer,” Mayor Pitts said.
