Caroliniana to close temporarily for renovation work
Posted on: 1/14/2015; Updated on: 1/14/2015The South Caroliniana Library will be closed Jan. 23-March 1 as the historic building is prepared to undergo renovations to better protect the millions of items in its collections.
All artifacts and materials currently housed in Caroliniana will be moved to off-site locations. The items will not be available during this time.
After the library reopens in March, the collections will be accessible, but there will be a different process for viewing them. Researchers must contact reference staff in advance of their visits by email or by phone at 803-777-3132 to allow for delivery of collection items to the library. This can be accomplished in the same day if requests are submitted early enough.
“We ask for researchers’ patience and understanding while our historic building undergoes important upgrades to our infrastructure,” says Henry Fulmer, director of the South Caroliniana Library. “Our staff is working hard to continue to provide excellent service during this process.”
