Three Rivers Regional Library System


The Three Rivers Regional Library system provides library services for patrons in Brantley, Camden, Charlton, Glynn, Long, McIntosh and Wayne counties. Named for three rivers that run through all seven counties, the Altamaha, the Satilla and the St. Marys, the system is comprised of ten individual libraries. In its earliest incarnation, the library system served Glynn and Camden counties, while the St. Simons Island Library and the Hog Hammock Library on Sapelo Island are the most recent additions to the system.

With headquarters in Brunswick, the Three Rivers member libraries own more than 350,000 items and boast an annual circulation of more than 850,000 items regionwide.

All Three Rivers libraries are members of Georgia PINES--Public Information Network for Electronic Services. Library patrons have access to more than 9 million items at more than 275 public libraries in Georgia. PINES offers many advantages that most Georgia libraries could not provide individually, including one statewide library card and free materials loans between member libraries.

Patrons of any Three Rivers library may also use GALILEO (GeorgiA LIbrary LEarning Online) either at the library or at home. GALILEO provides access to over 150 licensed, commercial databases at no charge to the user. Several databases offer full-text journal articles on a wide variety of subjects. Most databases are available for use outside the library, though a password is required. This password, which is changed quarterly, is available at any Three Rivers library.
