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.

After nearly two weeks of indoor remodeling

The Ada Public Library is now open after being closed for inside construction since Jan. 10, according to Rhett Grant, library director.

"The addition is not due to be completed until Feb. 28," he said. "The parking lot is wonderful, but not our's until the construction crew turns it over to us. Come check out our new ceilings, front desk, carpet and other changes.

During the closure fines did not occur on patron cards and all patron holds have been placed on suspension during the closure.

The first official event held following the reopening is the Ada Historical Society organizing committee meeting 6:30 p.m.

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.
