Welcome to the Waialua Public Library! Built by Isamu Abe Construction, our current library is the smallest public library on Oahu. In 1997, the Public Library Association (division of American Library Association) honored it as the “Best Small/Rural Library in America.” In 2013, our library celebrated its 85th Anniversary in grand-style.

Join us Saturday at 10:00am for story time! We’ll read a few simple stories, then make a craft. Great fun for preschoolers and their parents or caregivers!
Note: due to staffing changes, storytime will be limited to once a month until further notice.
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.

Join the Writers Group at the Waialua Public Library every 2nd Thursday from 9:30am-11:00am to discuss the monthly writing topic, share your work, and get feedback from other writers. The theme for February 12, 2026 is: “Bad Habits.”
