Free public meeting rooms are available in all Scott County libraries. Events held in these rooms must be free and open to the public. Most libraries have study rooms suitable for one or two people available on a first come, first served basis.
Here's what you need to know:
- Meeting room use may not interfere with the normal functions of the library.
- Meeting rooms can be used during unstaffed library hours in some locations. You must borrow a Meeting Room Rental Kit to access these rooms.
- For more information about policies and room use, visit SCL's Meeting Room webpage.
