The South Carolina State Library's Institutional Libraries initiative provides new books to libraries within state institutions, which are catered to their specific needs. In order to participate, the institution must have long-term residents with restricted access to public libraries.  Participation is limited to institutions of state government. Our past and current partners include The South Carolina Department of Corrections, The South Carolina Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, and the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice.

This initiative is made possible through funding provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the Library Services and Technology Act.  For more information, please contact the Facilities and Access Consultant.
