The room must be used during regular library hours except for library sponsored programs.

No admission fees may be charged, donations solicited or materials/services sold, with the exception of library sponsored programs.

The fact that a group is permitted to use the room does not constitute an endorsement of the group’s policies or beliefs by the Library staff or Trustees.

Reservations must be made for specific hours and groups must leave promptly when their reserved time ends.

Groups are responsible for setting up and taking down chairs and returning the room to the condition in which it was found.  Light refreshments may be served in the Hicks Kimball room during a scheduled meeting.

Groups intending to serve refreshments or use library equipment must sign a Hicks Kimball Room Use Agreement.

Groups reserving the room for repeated use must sign a Hicks Kimball Room Use Agreement.

Groups using the room will assume full responsibility for any damages or additional cleaning fees.
