Community Room & Board Room Usage

Members of the public are welcome to reserve the Community Room or Board Room for events and meetings.

In order to qualify, the online reservation must be made a week or more in advance, the event must be free and open to the public and must be of a civic, cultural, or educational character. Meetings may not be for commercial or strictly social purposes. 

There is no charge for using these spaces. Setup, tear down, and clean up responsibilties all fall to the party reserving the space. If you would like to have refreshments at your event, please be sure to ask when you first reserve the room. Refreshments must be approved by the Library Director. Meals are not allowed.

We do not allow any items to be sold in our public spaces. We also prohibit the collection of donations for any organization on library property, save for the Normal Public Library Foundation.

Board Room

Description: The Board Room is a conference style meeting room with a large table that seats ten.

Equipment: Projector with on-site computer, dry-erase board, sink.

Seating: Ten people fit comfortably around the meeting table. There is additional seating around the periphery of the room for an additional eleven people.

Community Room

Description: The Community Room is a large multipurpose room on the lower level of the library. Half of the room is carpeted and half is uncarpeted.

Please be sure to select any additional equipment at the time that you apply for the room. If you would like to make a presentation that involves projecting, please indicate by selecting the projector and the appropriate adapter if you are bringing your own laptop.
