The South Carolina State Library has been monitoring the outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 (now pandemic) and is working closely with our partners and event organizers to help manage its impact on our library community statewide.

In this challenging time, the fundamental guiding principle we have used, and will continue to use, is that we will follow the guidance and policies as established by the State of South Carolina. The South Carolina State Library encourages individuals to pay close attention to the SC DHEC COVID-19 website for additional updates and information.
