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.

SCLENDS, which stands for “South Carolina Library Evergreen Network Delivery System," is a consortium of 20 county libraries and the State Library that shares resources and circulating materials. SCLENDS libraries share a single catalog, which means that patrons can search for items at any of the libraries as easily as they search for items at their home library.

The South Carolina State Library has put together a resource guide that contains links to information which may be helpful to library staff related to the novel coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic. Information includes guidance specifically related to public libraries, and cleaning and disinfecting areas of the library. This guide will be regularly updated to include any new information as it is received.

We will reschedule the presentation of “A War on Two Fronts” with Dr. Maggi Morehouse, Burroughs Distinguished Professor of Southern History and Culture at Coastal Carolina University and a daughter of an officer in the 93rd infantry division. Dr. Morehouse’s research explores how African Americans in the 92nd and 93rd Army infantry divisions fought for racial equality during wartime, and then went on to be active participants in the Civil Rights Movement.
