Temporary Hours for Oahu Public Libraries

Changes Effective August 31, 2020

HONOLULU -- At the Hawaii State Public Library System, we are working diligently to navigate the ongoing changes in guidance and requirements from local, state, and federal authorities during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Starting Monday, August 31, 2020, all Oahu public libraries will only be open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays for Library Take Out services during their regular public service hours. In addition:

• All Oahu library book drops will remain open
• Due dates and hold pick up dates will be extended
• All Oahu libraries will continue to provide services over the telephone during their regular public service hours.

Updates and alerts will be posted on our website as they occur. For more information, please visit our website at librarieshawaii.org to use our many online resources including ebooks, Kanopy and Ancestry online.

We know these changes may be difficult, but we will continue to find ways to support our communities. We look forward to welcoming Oahu residents back to the Hawaii State Public Library System libraries soon.

For health and hygiene tips, and reliable news sources about COVID-19, please visit the State of Hawaii Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
