Greenwood County Library System's Digital Collection | |
Founded in 1901 by the Ladies Library Association, the Library provided books to many who would not otherwise have access. In its 115-year history, the Greenwood County Library has been in four locations that include 413 Main Street, 532 Monument Street, 106 North Main Street, and currently 600 South Main Street. The Greenwood County Library System, which includes the Main Library, Ninety-Six Branch Library, Ware Shoals Community Library, and the Bookmobile, has always strived to provide the best services possible to the residents of Greenwood County. In the more recent years, that has included offering many more resources and materials in a digital format. With the help of the South Carolina State Library’s Digitization in a Box Project and the Office of Library Technology of the Clemson University Libraries, we have been able to preserve and make available for viewing many historical photographs and documents from the Greenwood County area.
