Well done Hokitika. It is a shame that Westport doesn't seem to want to save their Carnegie Library.

Kelly Reedy
Annemarie Harris my thoughts too. I really admire towns like reefton and hoki doing their best to save their hertitage buildings and history

What was also interesting was the collection of books in the upstairs collection. Carnegie obviously intended to educate the West Coast.

I've got fabulous memories of this building as a teenager museum curator of the time Jim Eyles used to send me in there to gather things ....often took my time by dressing up in the old clothes
