  • Hawaii State Public Library System Launches New LibrariesHI App

    HONOLULU -- Hawaii State Public Library System (HSPLS) patrons can now download HSPLS's free, new patron-friendly app. Compatible with iOS and Android devices, the library's updated app offers patrons the ability to: manage loans and holds on materials, find the nearest library, manage family library cards in one place, place holds on physical and digital books, self-check-out and more.

    Library patrons can download the app from their device's app store or call or stop by their nearest library for assistance and more information.

    "We are excited to launch the new LibrariesHI App. We've been able to incorporate feedback from our patrons to improve the app experience. It is easy to use and makes managing your library account a breeze," said State Librarian, Stacey Aldrich.

    When visiting the library, all patrons will be required to follow basic health and safety protocols including wearing a face covering, which covers their nose and mouth. Find your library's hours here.
