Hawaii State Library

Libraries, Honolulu


Fodor's Review:

This beautifully renovated main library was originally built in 1913. Its Samuel M. Kamakau Reading Room, on the first floor in the mauka courtyard, houses an extensive Hawaii and Pacific book collection and pays tribute to Kamakau, a missionary student whose 19th-century writings in English offer rare and vital insight into traditional Hawaiian culture.
