University of South Carolina Libraries
South Carolini From Staff Reports Les Inabinett has seen many changes during his 25-year tenure as he retires as director of USC's South Caroliniana Library. At a reception recently held in his honor, Kenneth Toombs, USC director of libraries, said Inabinett is "an institution" and has done an outstanding job as South Caroliniana librarian. "He certainly knows more about South Carolina than anyone I've ever met," Toombs said. "He knows its people, its books, its geography, its pictures, practically anything you can think of. He's a gentleman and a scholar, and he'll be sorely missed."
