About

Welcome to the Wahiawā Public Library!

The former library was designed by Arthur Kohara and built by Wahiawā Builders and opened on July 15, 1965.  As an important community information node, literacy, lifelong learning, and a love of reading remain vital to our library’s mission.

Visit the temporary location in the Wahiawā Shopping Center. A new library is now being built and will take about 2 years to complete.
