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.
