The oldest state-supported library in Florida, it is primarily one for legal research. It was originally designed for the use of the Supreme Court and the attorneys who practice before it and continues to have that as its primary purpose. Until the 1885 Constitution was amended in 1956, the clerk of the Supreme Court also served as librarian. Since 1956, under section 25.341, Florida Statutes, the Supreme Court has had a librarian whose sole responsibility is administering the library.
