The official South Carolina Hall of Fame is located in the Myrtle Beach Convention Center and was dedicated in 1973 by Governor John C. West. Since 2001, it has been the state's official hall of fame. The hall was created to recognize and honor those contemporary and past citizens who have made outstanding contributions to South Carolina's heritage and progress and now has over 60 inductees. The South Carolina State Library recently received a set of DVDs produced by South Carolina ETV on 37 of the Hall of Fame inductees.
