Meeting ROOM USE POLICY

The primary use of the Manatee County Public Library System’s (MCPLS) meeting rooms is for conducting the official business of the Library. When meeting rooms are not being used for Library and Library partner programs, by the Friends of the Library, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) or the other Manatee County Departments, they may be used by individuals, groups, and organizations in the public and private sector according to the Meeting Room Policy. The Library Services Manager is responsible for administration of the policy and reserves the right to terminate a reservation at any time without prior notice.
