📖 About Suwannee River Regional Library — Live Oak
The Suwannee River Regional Library System (SRRLS) is a state-funded, multi-county cooperative based in Live Oak, the Suwannee County seat. The system spans nine branches across Suwannee, Hamilton, Columbia, Lafayette, and Dixie counties — a vast, rural region whose communities depend on the library as a central resource for education, workforce development, and digital access. The Live Oak headquarters branch at 1848 Ohio Avenue South serves as the system's main administrative and collections hub, coordinating services from Branford and Dowling Park to Jasper, Jennings, and White Springs. The system offers a growing Library of Things collection, a Seed Lending Library to support local food gardeners, and a robust digital catalog that includes CloudLibrary, Libby/OverDrive, and academic reference databases. All branches provide free Wi-Fi and ePRINTit printing. SRRLS is funded in part by the Florida Department of State.
