This blog is a metaphorical toe in the blogging waters as we in Information Services enter the Library 2.0 world. We intend to use this blog as a way to communicate the things we are learning and interested in to our patrons and kin-librarians in South Carolina and (possibly) beyond.

Here at the State Library we have a great and unique perspective on South Carolina and the needs of patrons across the state. From state employees who need books on management to public librarians who are looking for materials to supplement their collection to local historians who want to plunder our shelves for history on the towns and cities of South Carolina, we are exposed to a little of everything.

In this blog, we would like to have a conversation about the reference needs and challenges of South Carolina and hopefully teach a little and learn a lot!
