Researching Georgia library history

I began my research paper using two papers written in the past to aid with library development and some annual reports. I have also read several newspaper articles. Last night I discovered the Georgia Library History Project online. So, today I am looking into that and obtaining more resources. While I am focusing on the last twenty years, I still want to be sure I hit the highlights in the earlier times. The majority of interesting things I read probably will never make the paper though. It would be too long. For example, I was reading an article today about the public library opening for the first time on St. Simons Island. The library was being run by a local boy scout. He shelved the books and checked them out to the locals. The local garden club sponsored the library along with assistance from the WPA. A lot of the public libraries in Georgia were faith, hope, and charity libraries sponsored by some local group. But, mentioning them all in the paper might be a bit much.
