Volunteer

Looking for a way to actively support your community?

Think about volunteering with the Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i, local friends, and/or contact your local branch to ask how you might participate in making great things happen at your local public library branch.

You have questions. We have answers.
We're librarians. (It's what we do.)
