A Room Rental Update

Our meeting rooms are a place where our community comes together — for nonprofit meetings, family gatherings, community groups, workshops, and local organizations. We’re grateful for everyone who makes use of these spaces.

We want to let you know about a small change to our room rental rates. Beginning September 1, 2026, rates will be:

$35/hour for individuals and nonprofit organizations, and $60/hour for for-profit organizations.

The rate for reservations already made by then will remain the same as before.

We know that even a modest increase can make a difference, and we didn’t make this decision lightly. These updated rates will help us continue to care for and maintain our meeting spaces and other services.

Thank you for your understanding, your support, and most of all, for continuing to make the library a place where our community can come together. We are lucky to be part of this wonderful community. 💙📚
