In 2016 the library archived the entire collection of the Sylvester Local News and made it available online for public access.

This program offers residents in supported libraries access to over 100 databases indexing thousands of periodicals and scholarly journals.

The concept for this library began in 1908 by citizens of Worth, but did not come to fruition until the Sylvester Woman's Club dedicated a space and collection for public use in 1919.

[7] Although it existed for a time as a library for public use, it was entirely run by the Woman's Club until it was formally dedicated to the county of Worth in February 1931.

In May 1959, concerns of book overflow were brought up at a meeting of the Woman's Club, and the decision was made to look for funding for a new building.

The club voted to deed the library space to the City of Sylvester and the County of Worth in November.

[8] Funding was initiated in 1978 with monies raised through fundraising efforts and through allocations made by state senators.
