Stacey Aldrich is the Hawaii State Librarian who oversees the fifty-one libraries across our major Hawaiian Islands and is a fan of those who love to read or are returning to the joy of reading. She's our Guest for this episode of "Hawaii Matters" with Host Kathy With a K.

The Hawaii State Libraries are celebrating all with "Mele", the theme for their "E Heluhelu Kākou: Let’s Read!" summer reading program. They also have a new look for their Library Card, if you're ready to update your existing account or want to officially sign up for your own.

The summer reading program is June 1-July 31, 2025 and you can find more information at their official site.

Thank you, Stacey, for the talk story!
