About

Welcome to the Honokaa Public Library! Our small 3,040-sq. ft. plantation-style building was built in 1936 and opened on June 15, 1937. One treasure in our collection is a photocopy of the original ships’ logs that brought Portuguese immigrants to Hawaii Island. Our library is the only place in the community that rents DVDs!


Upcoming events at this branch

Book cover of Aloha Everything by Kaylin Melia George. It features a Hawaiian woman striding over the sea with a turtle and fish below and the sky with birds, dragonflies and butterflies above.

CALLING ALL EXPLORERS! Dive into the spectacular world of Aloha Everything with a special author event!
Encounter mighty canoes crashing over ocean waves, royal hawks soaring high above the koa trees, and much more in this unforgettable literary adventure. Author Kaylin Melia George will visit us and read her book, as well as talk about her own journey of creating it.

The 4:00 pm presentation will be appropriate for all ages, and will be followed by special activities for keiki, including a mini-workshop with the author, for ages 8 & up.
