About

Welcome to the Keaau Public & School Library! Designed by Matsunaga, Sako, and Associates/Architects, Inc., we’re located on Keaau Middle School campus, and opened on Sept. 30, 1974. In 2014, we offered temporary free 24/7 Wi-Fi to Puna residents during June 27th lava flow and Hurricane Iselle’s devastation. Our library celebrated its 40th Anniversary on Nov. 25, 2014.

monster wearing baseball cap.

Please join us for a free viewing of the movie, Monsters University.  Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case.  From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn’t stand each other.  Monsters University unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.  Rated G.

Please join us for a free screening of the movie, Roald Dahl’s The Witches.  The tale of a young orphaned boy who, in late 1967, goes to live with his loving Grandma in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis.  As the boy and his grandmother encounter some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, she wisely whisks him away to a seaside resort.  Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world’s Grand High Witch has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe, undercover, to carry out her nefarious plans.  Rated PG.
