Main Collection

The Center's main collection consists of two parts - current materials and the permanent collection. Current materials, received on a regular basis from publishing houses, are kept for two years in the Center. At the end of the two-year period, they are added to the research collection of Thomas Cooper Library at the University of South Carolina.

All hardcover books in the Center are cataloged into a database located on the premises. The database is updated as books are rotated out of the Center, making it as current as the collection.The database can be searched by subject, author, and keyword. which facilitates the research needs of patrons.

The Center's permanent collection consists of award winning books, professional materials, books designated as instructional materials, foreign language books, wordless picture books, autographed books, and books on tape. The award winning books, which make up the bulk of the permanent collection, include:
