Booksales

Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i (FLH) is grateful to our community partner and the sponsor of our three primary booksales - Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union (HSFCU).

In addition to sponsoring those booksales, Hawai‘i State FCU has given FLH members eligibility to join the credit union and has allowed FLH to open bookstores in two of their branches for HSFCU members.

Bookstores

FLH is working to expand our year-round sale opportunities. Opened in 2007, Billʻs Bookmobile was located next to our warehouse in Kaka‘ako but was destroyed by a fire in 2015. In 2013, FLH opened the pop-up HSL Bookstore in the lobby of Hawai‘i State Library on South King St., as well as two pop-up bookstores at Hawai‘i State FCU branches. In April 2017, FLH opened the BOOKS at Mark's Bookstore in the ARTS at Mark's Garage collaborative space in Honolulu's Chinatown district.

Four local Affiiliate Friends groups have also opened bookstores at their library branches, raising funds specifically for their library branch.

Pop-up and Local Friend Booksales

Local Friends groups @ your library work to support their branch by organizing book sales and year-round bookshelves, carts, or even stores to generate funds.

FLH participates in community and literacy events with pop-up booksales. These events have included the Hawai‘i Book & Music Festival, Eat the Street, Wild About Reading at the Honolulu Zoo, Education Week at the Capitol, and others. . . find a booksale near you by following the link below -
