Barnwell County Public Library

Heritage Corridor Site

On Monday afternoon, November 20, 1952, the Barnwell County Library was officially opened by the County Delegation and the County Library Board. With the exception of a few months of county library service shared with Allendale County in the 1940s and a subscription library in Williston, this was the first public library since the county was founded in 1798. The opening of the library was a significant milestone, representing the dream persistently pursued for years, by several determined citizens. The current building, located on the Circle in Barnwell, was built in 2005.
