Book a Room

Thank you for your interest in using space at the Eliting Memorial Library.

The Library has two Study Rooms available for public use. These rooms can hold from 6-8 people maximum. These rooms are outfitted with a table and chairs, as well as a whiteboard.

  • Study rooms must be booked through our booking system.

  • Study rooms will remain locked at all times. To gain access, please see a staff member at the front desk.

  • Patrons ages 12 to 18 must show ID (school ID is permitted) or a library card to book a study room. Any other patron who will be in the room must also show ID at the time of booking. Patrons ages 12 to 18, there is a limit of 4 to a room.

  • Patrons ages 19 and up only need one patron to book the study room.

  • Once a room is booked, the appointment cannot be changed unless it is a two-hour booking, and the patron is over thirty minutes late. In that case, the patron forfeits the second hour.

  • Please contact the front desk to cancel an appointment to make it available to others.
