Library Equipment
If a renter wishes to use library equipment while renting the Community Room, special arrangements must be made with library staff to service the equipment and, therefore, need to schedule time for accommodation. To use library equipment during the rental time, there is a charge of $25 for the use of equipment in the room. The renter of the room will pay any costs associated with damage to the equipment.
The Community Room can be reserved by calling the library at 724.465.8841.
