Greenwood County Library

Greenwood County LibraryGreenwood’s public library is well-known for its progressive programs and planning. With two branches in the community to complement the main library, facilities encourage school involvement and access to the most up-to-date information and technology available system-wide.

A capital campaign is underway for a new main library, to be located in Uptown Greenwood, which will be the first “green” library in South Carolina — energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Expanded capacity to support the needs of our growing population, subsidized by our popular Bookmobile service, promises greater community involvement and the ability to meet the needs of readers, print or technology based, well into the future.
