The North Canton Public library invites patrons to explore the world of chocolate in October. Yum!

The North Canton Public Library offers several delectable options for exploring the world of chocolate in October. Dedicating one of our exploration months to chocolate was an obvious choice. A search for “chocolate” in the library’s catalog brings up 438 results ranging from cook books to fiction books to movies to music and more. October is the perfect month to explore a sweet subject with trick-or-treat celebrations approaching.

It’s so easy:
1.    If a patron doesn’t already have one, they can pick up a free exploration guidebook at the library.
2.    Patrons then choose and complete one of October’s activities (listed below).
3.    Library staff will validate October’s guidebook coupon for a free package of chocolates from Hometown Chocolates, and entry in a drawing to win a chocolate gift basket.

Adult and Teen Exploration Activity Options:

  • Attend the October 9th “Chocolate Treats for the Health-Conscious and Allergy-Prone” program with culinary enthusiast and owner of Four Kids Coffee, Jason Sackett. Sample their famous chocolate brownies and other treats, along with world-class coffee! Registration required.
  • Attend Chocolate Covered Anything for Teens October 21.
  • Bring a donation for Refuge of Hope (see wish list on our website).
  • Check out an item from the “explore the world” display in the young adult or adult department and complete the monthly survey.

Children’s Exploration Activity Options:
  • Attend the Hometown Chocolates Lollipop Making program October 12. Registration required.
  • Attend Movie Mania featuring Monsters Inc. on October 17.
  • Check out two items from the “explore the world” display in the children’s department.
  • Bring a donation for Refuge of Hope (see wish list on our website).

Each month, the library’s special incentives are possible thanks to an “exploration” partner. In October, North Canton’s own Hometown Chocolates is providing this support.
