Libraries, Virtually Anywhere

Hand holding a smart phone that shows a photo of a stack of library books.

Just like the State Library, your local public library is virtually anywhere. Visit your local public library's website for a list of programs, resources, and services that you can access from home. From reference help to eBooks and online bookclubs, you will be amazed by the creative ways that library staff connects with patrons. Also, visit our Coronavirus and Public Libraries resource page. There you will find a mulitude of links to community resources, youth programs, support for small businesses, and stress management. "Virtually anywhere" is more than just a phrase. It is our vision to see our community through these times and develop, support, and sustain a thriving statewide community of learners committed to making South Carolina stronger.
