The Community Meeting Room

Availability

• The library community room is available for both individuals and organizations.  Since the library is a tax-supported facility, it may be used only by non-profit organizations whose membership is open to all without restrictions based on race, sex, or religious creed.

• Commercial or profit-making organizations sponsoring educational programs of a non-profit nature will be permitted to use the room on a case-by-case basis provided the meetings are open and free to the general public and do not include selling, solicitation, or order taking.

• Religious and partisan political promotions are prohibited on the premises.

Reservations

• Library programming will have first priority in scheduling room use.

• The community room will be available during regular library hours on a first come/first reserved basis.  Usage running after library hours must be approved by the Library Director.

• One person from the organization shall be responsible to the library for the group’s use of the room.  That person must complete a reservation form and leave a $50 refundable deposit in order to reserve the facility.

• No reservations will be taken over the phone.

• Applications may be rejected and previously granted permission may be withdrawn for violation of library rules or conduct inconsistent with library rules and regulations.

• Reservations may only be made by an adult, 18 years of age or older during business hours of 9:00-5:00, Monday through Friday.

Rules for Use
