• Mccully-Moiliili Library Gets $5,500 DVD Donation

• Tweet

McCully-Moiliili Public Library received a donation of Korean television
drama and feature film DVDs, valued at over $5,500, from the Korean
Library Foundation on November 16th.

This generous donation included a total of 27 copies of 14 different
kinds of popular Korean television dramas such as "Winter Sonata," "Full
House," and "All In," each of which has more than 100 customers waiting
to borrow the title. In addition, the Foundation donated "The King &
Clown," one of this year's biggest hit movies in Korea.

These DVDs will be added to the Korean language collection of more than
17,000 books and other materials housed at the McCully-Moiliili Public
Library. Customers with a valid library card may borrow the DVDs for
seven days at $1.00 per copy. By using the Hawaii State Public Library
System's online reserve feature, customers can specify the library where
they would like to pick up the DVDs.

The "Korean Wave" has been an overwhelming success in Hawaii, thanks to
the phenomenal growth of the Korean television drama and film industry.
It is hoped that this latest donation will assist non-Korean speaking
local residents to learn more about and enjoy Korean culture.

Formerly known as Moon's Book Club, the Korean Library Foundation was
established in 2005 to assist the Hawaii State Public Library System
raise funds to purchase Korean language books and other materials.
