| The Allendale Library was organized in 1906 by a group of interested
citizens. As soon as Allendale was established as a county, the Library was
organized as a County Library. On completion of the Court House, the Library was
moved to a room in the Court House. In 1941 Allendale, Barnwell and Hampton counties formed a Regional Library
with headquarters in Allendale. A bookmobile was purchased to serve the rural areas.
With the termination of the W.P.A, Barnwell withdrew from the Regional Library. In
1947 Jasper joined the Regional System and the library became known as the Allendale-
Hampton- Jasper Regional Library.
At the completion of the War
Memorial Building, the County Library Board petitioned the delegation for space for the
County Library and Headquarters for the Regional Library. The request was granted
and the Allendale County Library and the Headquarters for the Regional Library are now
housed in the building.
2008-2009 Board Members:
Charlie Carlson, Jenny Causey, Frances Chavous, Suzanne Goodson, Chrissy
Holliday, Dan Johnson, Mark Lott and Sylvia McTeer Young
