The South Carolina State Library's plan for use of Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA) Title I, II and III funds is presented. Highlights include a profile of the public, including special needs populations; profiles of the state's libraries and their needs; criteria, priorities, and procedures for library improvement under Title I (Library Services); Title II (Library Construction), and Title III (Interlibrary Cooperation); and long-range goals, objectives and implementation plans. The goals are: (1) to strengthen the State Library agency for the purpose of providing statewide library leadership and services; (2) to expand and improve public library services throughout the state, providing access for every resident, so as to further the educational, vocational, economic, and cultural enrichment of all citizens; (3) to extend public library service to special constituencies, including the disadvantaged, children, the elderly, the illiterate, the unserved, and persons of limited English-speaking ability and (4) to encourage and develop resource sharing by all libraries through participation in the South Carolina Library Network and other cooperative activities.
