Welcome to the Hanapepe Public Library! Designed by architects Guy N. Rothwell and Edmund Abrams, our library opened on Feb. 9, 1950.

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)
