Meeting Rooms Fee Schedule
Groups that must pay fees for use of library meeting facilities are essentially paying for a block of time during which the room is exclusively reserved for their use. This reserved time must include adequate time to make furnishing and equipment, set up arrangements and adequate time for clean up afterward.
Ample time must be reserved as another meeting may be scheduled immediately after your group's scheduled time. Meetings that run beyond their scheduled time will only be permitted to continue by permission of the scheduling staff.
The applicable hourly charge will be assessed. Refunds will not be issued for shortened meetings. Nonprofit and government groups that are not charged fees are nevertheless asked to be accurate and realistic in reserving meeting room time so as not to infringe on other groups' use of the facilities. Applicable fees must be paid on or before the time that the meeting begins. Any damages to equipment and /or furnishings must be promptly reported.
Non-Profit
There is no charge for Caldwell County based non-profit organizations.
For Profit
Caldwell County based "for profit" organizations; or any social activity sponsored by a Caldwell County resident. (The Library Director or designated staff member will make determination of a group's status.)
