Library!

The South Central Kentucky Cultural Center (SCKCC) offers the researcher a Genealogy Library with dedicated volunteers who are eager to assist. Visitors from all over the United States visit the SCKCC's Genealogical Research Library. Some of the resources include surname files, family history books, information from the South Central counties of Kentucky such as census records, cemetery books, marriage records, funeral home records, local newspapers from 1849 - 2017, historic photos, and books by local historians, the Metcalfe County Historical Society, the Barren County Historical Society, and the Horse Cave Heritage Council.

Volunteers are constantly working to make more resources available for research. We ask for your patience as this is a very detailed, deliberate undertaking.

Local newspapers from 1849 - 1971 are searchable

on the computer in our lobby by date, while bound volumes of local

newspapers from 1972 - 2017 are located on the third

floor. These newspapers are rich with local history

including news events, business ads, local politics, birth announcements, marriages, and obituaries.

A Volunteer is required to accompany visitors to the

newspaper area. Please call ahead to make sure a

volunteer will be available during the time you plan to

research the newspapers of 1971- 2017
