THE LIBRARY IS OPEN AGAIN!

Effective Friday September 25, 2026, the Library will be open once again after our long reconstruction of the Library roof. Thank you for your patience and understanding. The Library is available for your personal onsite research during Library hours, and we are again accepting research requests as outlined on our Genealogy/Research page.

For the time being, the Museum remains closed and guided tours suspended until further notice. We apologize for any inconvenience.

See Current Events for our next program.

Come visit the Library and Fort Augusta scale model on the site of Fort Augusta!

The Library is open 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (March thru December). In addition, for your convenience the Library is open until 7:00 pm the first Wednesday of each month.

The Fort Augusta scale model is available for viewing, including from the observation deck, any day during daylight hours.  Visit the site of Fort Augusta and see its two (2) original remaining features from the 1750s, the well and the powder magazine.
