Advertiser Staff
City and community leaders will celebrate the long overdue completion of renovations at Makiki Community Library tomorrow.
The ceremony is set for 2 p.m. at the library.
The library has been closed since September 2005.
Ron Paik, president of the library's board of directors, said it will take about two more months for volunteers to get the library ready for patrons. The library is run by volunteers and donations, and will have to hire a part-time librarian before it can have regular hours, he said.
The city funded the renovations to the library, but ran into structural and other problems that caused delays. The library is the only community library in the Islands financed by donations.
