About

Welcome to the Hanapepe Public Library! Designed by architects Guy N. Rothwell and Edmund Abrams, our library opened on Feb. 9, 1950. Our library celebrated 60 years of service and dedicated its new auditorium on Mar. 11, 2010. A photo-voltaic solar system installed in 2011 helps our library and HSPLS save money on utility bills.

A green book cover with leaves

One Two Three : a novel
by Laurie Frankel​

“In a town about to be ravaged for a second time by an evil chemical company, teenage triplets fight the power…Frankel has given us another socially conscious 21st-century fable in a voice that is part pastor, part political speechwriter, and part Fannie Flagg…Clever, charming, and always on message.” (Kirkus Reviews)
