Love chocolate? Who doesn't.

Ada Public Library's 6th annual chococlate bake-off should appeal to you. It's at 11 a.m., Saturday, Feb. 10, at the library.

The rules to enter are simple and there's just one rule: bake or make something that showcases chocolate as the main ingredient and bring it to the library on Saturday by 10:45 a.m.

The winner will be decided by popular choice. Call or stop by the library to sign-up or just show up to enjoy a free dessert and help choose a bake-off winner.

Melia Santillanez and Elsie Allen won first place in last year’s bake-off. They entered a Texas sheet cake.

A new, enlarged circulation desk has been installed at the Ada Public Library.

With an addition/renovation and convenient parking, the library can expect more patrons bring books to the front desk for checkout.

The desk is lower, too, making it more convenient for youngsters. Purple, yellow, blue walls make the library a bright, happy place.

The library closed for 10 days while workers installed new ceiling, carpeting, and built the desk. It reopened Monday.

The Ada Public Library will be closed for a week and a half starting Wednesday, Jan. 10, because the  library is undergoing a major renovation and addition. The library will reopen at 10 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 22.

During the closing work will be done on the ceiling and renovations in the main part of the library, taking advantage of being closed for Martin Luther King Day and a staff inservice day. A new front desk will also be built during the closing.
