The Oconee Regional Library System (ORLS) is a public library system that serves the Georgia counties of Glascock, Laurens, Johnson, Treutlen, and Washington. The headquarters for the library system is in Dublin, Georgia and the system serves a population of over 83,000 people across 2,011 square miles.

Our collection is supported by the College of Environment and Design, donations, and support from our patrons and is a combination of books, journals, theses and senior projects. There are over 7000 items in the circulating collection. Owens Library works in conjunction with the university’s Main Library in that our books are cataloged within its system. In addition to current journals and cataloged books, Owens Library oversees various donated collections of materials reflective of our programs’ endeavors. These include photographs, plans, drawings, videos, and rare books that are not in circulation. In addition to the physical collection in Owens Library, our staff oversees the College of Environment and Design’s digital portal on the Athenaeum site of the UGA Main Library. This includes various publications and projects produced by our faculty, students and staff.
