73rd Annual Booksale

73rd Annual

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 73rd sale has been postponed to 2021.
New dates will be announced.

An island tradition for 73 years . . .

The Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i (FLH) is unable to host the 73rd Annual Booksale, presented by Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union (HSFCU) due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The sale was scheduled for mid-June 2020 but has been canceled for the safety of our patrons. We look forward to offering our fantastic selection of books and media online through this website soon!

At Hawai‘i’s largest used booksale, you can choose from over 150,000 books in every category imaginable!

Since 1947, the FLH Annual Sale has invited Hawai‘i residents to browse selections of new and used, out-of-print and bestselling books and media. 73-years later, the sale is an island tradition and each summer thousands readers of all ages and backgrounds converge on the McKinley High School cafeteria for 11 days of bargains and a selection of titles to rival any bookstore.

Encompassing much more than books, the booksale will feature a selection of CDs, DVDs, comics and manga, and many more hard-to-find items. A popular section of the sale is the eclectic selection of donated ART. There is modern art, prints from local artists, lithographs, and sculpture.
Mahalo nui loa to the Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union, our title sponsor, as well as to our other valued sponsors who include, Pension Services Corporation, Hawai‘i, Renée B. Fisher Foundation, Rezents & Crowley, LLP, Safeway, Foodland, Hawai‘i Foodservice Alliance, Whole Foods Market, Honolulu, and Zippy’s.

Welcome!

The Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i is a nonprofit organization whose primary objective is to maintain free public libraries in the State of Hawai‘i, to promote extension of library services throughout the State of Hawai‘i and to increase the facilities of the public library system of Hawai‘i by securing materials beyond the command of the ordinary library budget. Other objectives are to focus attention on libraries and to encourage and accept, by bequest or gift, donations of books, manuscripts, money, and other appropriate material that can enrich the cultural opportunities available to the people of Hawai‘i.
