Meeting Rooms

PLEASE NOTE: We will be renovating the library for the next several months starting March 18, beginning with renovations for restrooms in the lobby and Children's Room. The Carman Community Room and Sargent Meeting room will be unavailable until renovations are complete. 

Carman Community Room

The Carman Community Room can be set up in several configurations to meet the needs of an event.

The Carman Community Room can fit as many as 125 people when its set up with chairs only, or 75 when tables are added.

Yes, it's a versatile space. The CCR even has a kitchen.

It is used for many of the library's events, including HD-projected movies on the big screen – and popcorn comes out of that kitchen and is served with beverages for free.

The Carman Community Room also can be reserved for public use by non-profit groups or organizations.

Guidelines for Using the Room:

• All meetings and events must be free and open to the public. Groups cannot bar anyone from coming in.
• There can be no admission fees, donations, or collections charged for room usage.
• No product or service may be sold.
• A media projection system is available with instructions for connecting your own computer equipment. Library staff may not be available to provide support with the set-up of audio-visual and computer equipment, especially on weekends and evening.
• Submitted requests for meeting room use will usually be responded to within 72 hours with either an approval or denial.
• Meeting room reservations are accepted up to three months in advance and are limited to one reservation per month.
• Library sponsored programs take priority over all other room reservations. In that event of a conflict, the Library reserves the right to cancel room reservations no less than 30 days prior to a scheduled event

Please be familiar with the Meeting Room Policy before making a reservation.
