This Saturday is the first Saturday in April and there’s this little product that’s releasing that’s supposed to revolutionize the way you read books. It’s about the size of a magazine and has an app that can access an online bookstore. It’s revolutionary, magical, and everyone seems to be hyped for this new, digital way to read books…
… but what if you’re in the mood for traditional, analog books? Well, the Friends of the Library of Hawaii are holding their First Saturday book sale at Bill’s Bookmobile to help feed your need for the feel of paper. The bookmobile will be rocking tons of books in there, ranging from military history and cooking, to gardening, hobby, and children’s books.
They’ll also have tons of novels available too. And no, not just the ones that got turned into movies.
The First Saturday sale goes down this Saturday at Bill Bookmobile, which will be parked at 690 Pohukaina Street in downtown Kaka’ako. If the address is unfamiliar, just head around the corner from the Fisher Hawaii in town. All proceeds from the books, music, and movies sold at the sale will benefit Hawaii’s public libraries.
So, head out there, buy a book (or a movie) and support the sanctuary of knowledge in Hawaii.

This year’s Hawaii Public Radio’s “Almost New” Record Sale has a littel twist to it: it’s pairing up with the Friends of the Library of Hawaii to create a week long music and book hunters extravaganza.
So, if you’re looking for that long lost book or for a record that has a dope snare sample, you don’t have to go too far for both.
The sale goes down this Saturday, June 28 to next Sunday, July 6th at the McKinley High School Cafeteria. There will be a special preview day today, June 27th, for those who are members of both organizations. So, if you’re a member, you got first dibs on all the primo stuff. You can actually sign up to be a member at the door, so no fears there.
The sale will be closed for the July 4th weekend (July 3rd and 4th), but will resume on Saturday morning, July 5th.
For more information on the sale, check out Friends of the Library of Hawaii or Hawaii Public Radio.
Please note that while the book sale will continue throughout the July 4th weekend, the HPR Record Sale closes shop on July 2nd, so make plans to hit that early and often.
