Meeting rooms are not available on library holidays. All meetings must begin at least 30 minutes before the library closes. Please review our Meeting Room Policies and our Meeting Room Regulations prior to reserving a room.

How much does it cost to reserve a room?
Meeting Room use is free for non-profit groups and individuals.
Meeting room use is charged in 15-minute increments, which includes setup, meeting, and teardown. For example, if your meeting is 1 hour and you add 30 minutes for setup or teardown, your payment will cover 1 hours and 30 minutes of reservation time. If you are able to complete your setup, meeting, and teardown within the 1-hour reservation, you will only be charged for 1 hour.
