Legislature Acts Ada Library Preservation As Historical Site Urged
The Oklahoma Legislature urged preservation of Ada Public Library as a historical site. Officials say the building, 14th and Rennie, dating to 1939, will not qualify for National Register listing until 1989, and no state list exists for such recognition. Local efforts by the Ada League of Women Voters continue.
