FLH Pop-up Bookstores
 FLH in partnership with the Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union (HSFCU), opened its first pop-up bookstore in the lobby of the Halekauwila Branch of HSFCU on August 22, 2013, . Since August, the bookstore has earned over $2,000 for Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i to further our mission of library support. With three bookcases of assorted materials, HSFCU members have enjoyed easy access to a wide variety of ever changing titles. FLH restocks weekly and updates inventory each month. FLH is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with HSFCU and appreciates its efforts to further our fundraising goals.
On November 22, 2013, FLH opened its second pop-up bookstore in the lobby of the Ali‘i Place Branch of the Hawai‘i State FCU. This branch, conveniently located in downtown Honolulu on the corner of Alakea and Hotel Streets, extends FLH fundraising efforts further into the community. At this second location, HSFCU members are able to enjoy access to a variety of affordable new and used books.
 On December 4, FLH opened its third pop-up bookstore in the lobby of the Hawai‘i State Library (HSL). The store is restocked weekly and there is an honor box for payment. Prices may be found on the first blank page of each book.
