State Library Presents Digital Collections Web Site

The South Carolina State Library is pleased to present Digital Collections (http://dc.statelibrary.sc.gov), a set of online projects that expand the State Library's mission to provide equal access to information for all South Carolinians.

These online collections create greater access to the State Library's unique historical resources and new digital projects.

The South Carolina State Documents Depository is an online library of both current and historical publications written by state agencies and state-supported academic institutions. These publications provide citizens with crucial information about state government, including statistics, annual accountability reports, and data on a wide variety of topics related to the state.


The staff of the State Library have scanned and made available publications of historical value and interest such as the directories of schools published by the State Department of Education from 1912 through 2010 and the inaugural addresses of 19 South Carolina governors. Links to these publications are also available through SCLENDS, (https://scsl.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/scsl) our online catalog shared with 13 other library systems.

For more information, contact Amanda Stone, Innovation & Digital Librarian, at astone@statelibrary.sc.gov or 803-734-4816.
