Three New Online Resources

Three library patrons sitting at computers.

The SC State Library is pleased to introduce three new electronic resources for our patrons, expanding access to news, genealogy resources, and grants information. These additions reflect the library's commitment to providing accessible tools to support learning, research, and discovery. These and all our online resources can be found on our Research & Resources page, and electronic database resources on the A-Z Database listing.

    Access the Wall Street Journal using the State Library’s link to create a personal account. You can view the WSJ from anywhere on your mobile phone or your computer. After three days you are required to sign into your personal account, which you can do from the WSJ website. State Library patrons have access to: unlimited articles, four-year archive, E-replica of that day’s paper, newsletters, videos, podcasts, and interviews.
