The Hog Hammock Public Library is on Sapelo Island, Georgia, in Historic Hog Hammock, one of the last intact island-based Geechee/Gullah communities in America. Sapelo Island, about seven miles offshore between Savannah and Brunswick, is accessible only by state-run ferry or private boat.
Hog Hammock Public Library was founded in 2002 as an initiative of the Sapelo Island Cultural and Revitalization Society Inc. (SICARS). It began as a small collection of books in the SICARS office on the island. The library’s collection grew, thanks to generous donations from island residents and visitors, and was moved to the old schoolhouse down the road.

In the spring of 2006, the Hog Hammock Public Library became a separate nonprofit organization. The library was dedicated as an affiliate of the Three Rivers Regional Library System in December 2006.
