Beth Adams is a stay-at-home-mom with four kids. She has been married to her best friend for 16 years. Beth developed a love of baking in college. Although finances were tight, she still wanted yummy treats to enjoy with her roommates. Pies were the main delectable in her home growing up and to her were the most rewarding to create and share.

For more information, the Akron Summit County has many books on baking pies, including Pie Academy:  Mastering the Perfect Crust and 255 Amazing Fillings, With Fruits, Nuts, Creams, Custards, Ice Cream, and More:  Expert Techniques For Making Fabulous Pies From Scratch by Ken Haedrich.

About the branch

Highland Square is one of Akron’s most iconic communities, hosting numerous street fairs and festivals, eclectic shopping and dining, and a vibrant night life. The extremely diverse neighborhood is home to seniors, young families, artists, educators, and students of all demographics. The Highland Square Branch Library is a reflection of this diverse neighborhood, with a standout LGBTQ collection and a rich programming schedule.

Reference assistance, computers and computer classes, WiFi, copiers, scanning, and faxing round out the services provided within the library. The full scope of community participation, however, is seen in local senior care facilities, local schools and preschools, and neighborhood festivals where Highland Square Branch Library staff plays an active role in creating experiences for participants of all ages. Visit us soon on the Square.
