Hawaiʻi State Archives is Open to the Public Tuesdays through Fridays

Posted on Nov 22, 2021 in HSA News

The Public Archives is open Tuesdays through Fridays from 9:00am to 4:00pm, except on State holidays. Our number one priority has always been the safety of our staff and the public, and so with the pandemic still amongst us, we must continue to be vigilant in protecting ourselves, our ʻohana, and community.

Please note the added restriction due to *Executive Order No.21-07 related to access to State properties, which requires everyone that comes into our facility to show proof of being either fully vaccinated or have a negative test result (tested within 72 hours of their visit) if their stay is longer than 15 minutes.

  • Everyone the age of 12 and older will be required to show proof that they are fully vaccinated or a negative test result
    • Official documentation of vaccination status – digital or hard copy accepted (fully vaccinated = 14 days after the 2-dose vaccine or 1 dose of Johnson & Johnson)
    • Negative test result of a COVID-19 test (has to be taken within 72 hours prior to visit)
  • Everyone will be required to show a valid government issued photo to verify vaccination status, as well as to register and check-in
  • Everyone will be required to properly wear a face covering (the mouth and nose are always covered) while in the facility
  • A temperature check will be done before entry to the facility, and if your temperature is too high you will be asked to leave
  • All public will maintain physical distancing of 6 feet from one another and from staff
  • If you are sick or feel sick, have a fever, cough, respiratory symptoms or other COVID related symptoms, you will be asked to leave
  • There is a maximum of 6 researchers allowed at any time during our public hours
  • If there is a waiting list (more than 6 people), your research time in the archives is limited to 2 hours from the time you checked in
  • If you are traveling to Oʻahu from the neighbor island or out-of-state, please email us at [email protected] at least 2 business days before your confirmed arrival (please note any travel restrictions must be followed)
  • Please visit https://ags.hawaii.gov/archives for more information and updates

Mahalo for your support and cooperation!

**NOTE: In order to provide access to the Public Research Room, the Archives is reliant upon the ʻIolani Palace State Monument being open to the public during regular business hours. At this time, DLNR and the Friends of ʻIolani Palace have designated Tuesday through Fridays as the days the park will be open to the public.
