• Library Value Calculator
  How much do you pay out-of-pocket for the services your local library offers? $5, $10, or $15, or more? You might be surprised by what you find out by using the State Library’s new Library Value Calculator. Library patrons can now visit the South Carolina Library Value Calculator and find out how much the library services used during a month equal in real dollar amounts. The calculator was adapted from the original Library Service Calculator provided by the Massachusetts Library Association.
