Welcome to the Pahoa Public and School Library! Our library opened on Sept. 3, 1967. We’re located on the campus of Pahoa High and Elementary School and serve residents and students from two area schools. Recently, we were an important hub after being hit by a hurricane and lava flows approached from Kilauea volcano.
Classes will be held on Wednesdays from 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM.
If you’re an adult looking to brush up on your computer skills, or you know someone who would like to learn, then come and join us Wednesday mornings for self-directed adult computer classes! We set you up with a laptop and help you sign in to either Northstar Digital Literacy or Skill Finder (both available on the HSPLS website), and then you go through the classes at your own pace.
Program is suitable for age 18 and over. All children must be accompanied by a parent or an adult caregiver.
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required.
Welcome to Babies, Books, and Blankets, a lapsit for babies 2 and under. Bring your baby and a blanket to sit on. We’ll provide the books, songs, and games!
There will be a free new book given to child participants the first story time of every month until December 2026. First come, first served. Thank you to the Pahoa Promise Partnership for their generous donations.
