The Three Rivers Regional Library System (TRRLS) is a public library system that serves the counties of Brantley, Camden, Charlton, Long, McIntosh, Pierce and Wayne, Georgia, United States. The administrative office of the system is located in Jesup.
The library system is named after the three rivers that course through Southeast Georgia: the St. Marys River, the Altamaha River, and the Satilla River.
TRRLS is a member of PINES, a program of the Georgia Public Library Service that covers 51 library systems in 146 counties of Georgia. Any Georgia resident or property owner, any student at a Georgia college or university, any member of the military stationed in Georgia, and anyone who works in Georgia can get a free library card at any PINES library. Patrons who do not qualify for a free card may choose to pay an annual fee of $25.00 or a semi-annual fee of $12.50 and enjoy all the benefits of a free card. Patrons may use their PINES card at any PINES library to checkout, renew, or return items. Patrons may request items from any PINES library to be sent to their home library at no cost
GPLS also provides access to GALILEO, a program of the University System of Georgia which stands for "GeorgiA LIbrary LEarning Online". This program offers residents in supported libraries access to over 100 databases indexing thousands of periodicals and scholarly journals. It also boasts over 10,000 journal titles in full text. Library patrons may access all databases inside the library and may use their PINES library card to access most databases from home.
