Art and Lucille Jahn Meeting Room

The following policies govern the use of the Art & Lucille Jahn Meeting Room:

The meeting room is provided primarily for library-related activities, such as book discussion groups, exhibits, slide or film programs, story hours, and other activities sponsored or co-sponsored by the library, to further the library’s educational programs and make substantial use of library materials.

The meeting room is not available for commercial sales. However, it may be used by for-profit organizations for training and educational purposes. Such commercial use includes, but is not limited to, bazaars, special benefit sales, and programs designed to promote the purchase of products and services. Events of a strictly social nature, such as reception, parties, and showers, are not permitted.

If any colleges or schools offering courses in the Leavenworth area for which they are charging fees desire the use of the meeting room on a regular basis for an extended period of time, those colleges or schools must make a formal request to The Board.

No admission fees may be charged for entrance to meetings or programs. Fees for study groups, discussion series, conferences, or similar meetings may only be collected if permission has been secured in advance from The Board.

At least one adult must be present and responsible for any event involving children under the age of 18. Individuals attending these meetings must make prior arrangements for child care, as the library cannot assume responsibility for the care of children of meeting attendees. In addition, the library is not responsible for any items that are lost or stolen during a meeting.

Set-up and special arrangement of the meeting room is the responsibility of the user/group. No special room set-ups will be provided by the library. The organization scheduling the room is responsible for any damages to the building, furniture, or equipment. No lighted candles or flames are allowed.

The fact that The Board has considered and authorized programs for presentation does not constitute endorsement by the library of points-of-view expressed by participants in the programs. The Library Director and Board reserve the right to cancel any meeting, should conditions or situations warrant such action. Neither the name nor the address of the library may be used as the official address or headquarters of an organization or group using the library’s meeting room. Contact information is provided by the user/group when requesting the meeting room and may be shared with individuals inquiring about such programs.

In the event of electrical or heating/cooling equipment failure or a weather-related emergency, all efforts will be made to notify the contact person of the organization scheduled to use the meeting room. During inclement weather, the group scheduled to use the room should check with the library before the scheduled meeting or listen to local radio/television stations for closing information.

Fees (which are cumulative):

• $10.00 per session when food is served
• $15.00 per hour for commercial training and educational purposes (for-profit)
• $15.00 for use of room prior to normal opening hours or beyond normal closing hours
• $25.00 per session for college and university classes

I have read and accept the terms of usage for the Art and Lucille Jahn Meeting Room.
