Though the MCL is
housed within a City and County parks building, it is not a city operation (nor
is there any affiliation with the State Library System.) It is managed by the
Friends of Makiki Community Library and functions as an independent non-profit
group within the building.
Inside The Makiki Community Library |
MCL accepts
donations of books in good condition and holds fundraisers to cover some of the
expenses for keeping the library open to the community as a recreational
reading room and lending library. The mission of this library is to provide
quality materials and programs that fulfill educational, informational,
cultural, and recreational needs of the Makiki community.

If you want to supplement your books-in-print collection at a price that you might expect to pay for an eBook through the Internet, stop in at The Makiki Community Library on Saturday and Sunday, February 11 and 12. If you see me there, be sure to say ALOHA!

Good excuse to finally make that vacation trip to Hawaii, Susan!
ReplyDeleteI live in Georgia (US), Honolulu is a little far. Is that Hawaiian language? those words like: Mauka and Makai? And what street is that library on? Key oh mow co?
ReplyDeleteOh, your photographs took me back to the year I lived with my first husband and four children in Laie (1975-76). It is SO beautiful there. I had thought at the time that I could live there forever. And I still think I could have!
ReplyDeleteMakiki Community Library: I would love to walk on its polished floors - and pick up a book or two.
