About

Welcome to the Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library! A former storefront library across the street, our current  library opened on Aug. 29, 1992. Our two-story building houses some of the library system’s administrative and support office staff. It features beautiful murals of historic Salt Lake and Moanalua during ancient Hawaiian times by renowned local artist Patrick Ching.


Upcoming events at this branch

Group of people walking around a tree

八卦內功簡介  Energy Bagua is a meditation developed by Master JinBodhi for the regeneration of vitality and maintenance of health.

It’s main components are based upon movements of the palms and walking in circles.

While practicing Energy Bagua, students can grasp the balance of YIN & YANG, return to nature, and connect with the universal energy.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged but not required. Program schedule is subject to change.
