Need a New Year’s Resolution? Consider reading more

A new year has arrived, and many people are combining up with ways that they could better themselves in 2026, whether it be exercising more, eating healthier, or learning a new skill. If you’re one of these people still looking for a resolution, Ada librarian Asha Osborn says reading more makes a great resolution, and the library has many free resources available to help you. 

Osborn says the library will also be holding a pair of programs this month that can help you start 2026 on the right foot. 

Osborn says if you would like to take advantage of the library’s many free resources, you will need a library card, and she explains how you can get one.
