DHEC and Berkeley County libraries partnership: Libraries to offer free take-home Covid-19 test kits through October

Free take-home Covid-19 test kits will be available in Berkeley County libraries through October following a partnership between DHEC and Berkeley County libraries.

In a Friday’s announcement, the Berkeley County Library System (BCLS) said that the free test kits will be available at all library branches as well as in the mobile library throughout the month of October.

Since the number of test kits is limited, the kits will be given on a first-come, first served basis.

As of now, the kits will be available only at a few sites, but in the upcoming days the officials will add additional sites.

Currently, pick up is available at the following sites:
