In normal times, Library meeting space is available to non-profit civic, educational and cultural groups or organizations. During the pandemic, however, the library is not hosting meetings or indoor events.
All Meetings Must be Free & Open to the Public
In addition, the meeting room is not available for sectarian religious meetings, purely social purposes, commercial purposes or for the benefit of private individuals. If used for a political meeting, both sides of a political race or issue must be presented. A schedule of all meetings will be posted in the library’s lobby.
