People's Free Library of South Carolina is a historic library building located at Lowrys, Chester County, South Carolina, United States. It was built in 1903–04, and is a small, one-story, rectangular building with a single room. The building has a gable roof, weatherboard siding, and stone foundation piers. It features a wooden wraparound porch. The building was restored in 1976, and serves as a museum and community landmark. The library operated a traveling library service from 1904 until at least 1909, perhaps the first such service in the state.[1] [2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
