The Charleston Library Society, established in 1748, holds the distinction of being the South's oldest cultural institution and the second-oldest circulating library in the nation. It serves as both a private lending library and a welcoming space for community engagement, offering access to an impressive collection of manuscripts, rare books, and early American newspapers, as well as hosting a variety of educational programs and events.

With a significant focus on conservation and the preservation of its special collections, the Library Society continuously seeks to enhance its offerings and maintain its historical assets. This commitment to the community is further reflected in initiatives like the Book Drop, which promotes early literacy and encourages local engagement with South Carolina's rich cultural heritage.
