About

Welcome to the Princeville Public Library! Designed by Kauai-born architect Maurice Yamasato of Yamasato, Fujiwara, Aoki & Associates, our library opened on Apr. 14, 1999. Princeville Corp., in partnership with the State and County, provided land to build the library. We are the 6th public library to open on the Garden Island.

The Princeville Public Library completed building renovations and reopened on June 14, 2025. The renovation project included replacing the air conditioning, repainting, re-flooring, and making structural improvements to both the interior and exterior of the building.
