A Letter From Incoming President Kitty Spires 


Dearest Friends of South Carolina Libraries,

I consider it an honor to serve as the incoming 2022-23 President of Friends of South Carolina Libraries. I am excited about the opportunities ahead as we work to support and grow libraries in South Carolina. I look forward to a great year of exciting events and profound learning experiences. Keep on the look out for emails about upcoming virtual and in-person regional and statewide events. We are always looking to present programs of interest and need, so please do not hesitate to email, or call anyone of the officers or board members with your suggestions and ideas. If I can ever be of service to any group, I’m only an email or phone call away. 

For the Friends,
