I'm a confirmed, lifelong book lover (my mom was a librarian, so that tracks lol), so I was super…read morehappy to discover the Wailuku library. It's an historic building, designed by Maui-born architect CW Dickey, and opened in August 1929. It was the first public library in Maui County, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. Inside you'll find a great selection of books in all genres, with varying displays of selected works that relate to current events or celebrations, and a staff of friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful librarians eager to help you get the most out of your library experience. There are adult and keiki reading rooms, a rack of books for sale (proceeds benefit the library), magazines, and much more. New automated checkout stations are super convenient and easy to use and offer you the choice of printed or emailed receipt for checked out items. As with all branches of the state library system, you can use their app to request and place holds on items and pick them up here (or any other location). The app also lets you see your due dates for checked out items, renew any if needed, and see where you are in line for items you've requested. The Wailuku library may not be physically huge, but it's definitely punching above its weight and providing great service to the community.

Seriously one of the cutest libraries I've ever been to. I can't believe I've never been to this…read morelibrary. I've driven by a million gazillion times and today was the first time I've ever been inside. It clearly is historic and what a gem. Parking is on the street or in the County parking lot across the street. There is a crosswalk and a ramp in the back for handicapped and strollers. I have fond memories of going to my local hometown library as a child so I hope to do the same for my little blessing. The librarians and everyone were so nice. There is also a little one floor elevator to get down to the keiki area. I love that they have their own space. It is super cute. I can see so many more trips in the future with my little one. Not the fanciest library but still wonderful and for someone who loves books like me, it is one of my happy places.

It's a little hard to find the building itself, just follow the signs behind the old sugar mill. It's hot and dusty but worth the trip.

I LOVE Barnes and Noble! So glad they made this location permanent after closing their Lahaina…read morestore a few yrs back. Sadly this location does not have a cafe, unlike there only other Hawai'i location at Ala Moana on Oahu. However, they more than make up for it with the overall feel of the store. As this location is much smaller than Ala Moana, it gives more of an independent bookstore vibe. There are plenty of books, manga, kids section, magazines, and other types of merchandise such as those for K-pop, crochet, and some limited selection of cds. No DVDs unfortunately. They also sell nook merchandise but I didn't see a display for the actual e-reader/tablets. Probably you will have to ask the cashier if you want to buy them. So be quick and come on down to Barnes and Noble. There are some good deals, but if you just use their premium membership you get 10% off almost everything or if you use their basic rewards membership after 10 stamps you get a $5 reward. 1 stamp for every $10 spent in a purchase.

I still love this post office because it's central and close to all of the places I need to run errands at on my lunch breaks during the week. Honestly though, I was getting pretty irritated with the 2 big pot holes by the parking entrance and exit but when I went today to mail out some packages and to check my po box, I was pleasantly surprised that they filled in those potholes. This is still a great post office and they still have great employees. Check them out.

WCC is aka the Velma McWayne Santos community center, was once the shining jewel of Maui's public…read morevenues, but has since been trumped by newer, climate-controlled buildings in other areas. The building is made with hollow tile which is a natural insulator, resulting in a cool interior despite the hot conditions outside, and ceiling fans aid in the cooling process. The open beam ceilings provide for an airy feeling. The space can be divided into 3 separate rooms or 1 big one which holds about 400-450 people max. There are lots of big windows that allow natural light to pour in. The fixed stage is equipped with a garage door backdrop that leads to the back of the facility and allows for easy set up for bands & entertainment. The only downfall is the tiny parking lot. There's an adjacent parking lot next door for park users but more than likely a sporting event will be happening so parking is normally super tight.

The two most frequented departments are the Labor & Industrial Relations and Tax Office. PARKING: The metered parking lot is small and rates are only 25-cents for 30 minutes which is dirt cheap! There is a very limited amount of free but timed street parking. ACCESS: The parking lot provides access to the first level. The main entry off High St brings you direct to the second level. There is an elevator but because the building looks so old, I used the stairs just for sanity's sake and a little exercise. I had some business to do at the tax office and received prompt and friendly service.
