Our Meeting Rooms are available for reservation!  Please read below for how to reserve a Meeting Room in our library located in Perry, Lake County, Ohio.

You may submit a room reservation request here or by calling the library at 440-259-3300.

The Library offers three meeting rooms for use by the public. We have a small conference room that seats 24 people, a larger general meeting room with a capacity for up to 40 people, and the Conner Room, which is a small study room for up to 8 people. (The children’s department story time room is available for library programs only.)

The Library meeting rooms are available during normal Library operating days and hours. Meetings must end 15 minutes prior to the library’s closing time for the day.

Rooms may be reserved no more than 6 months in advance.  Library programming will have first priority in determining room use.  Hours of scheduling shall include the total time involved in the meeting (including setup and clean up) to the time the room is vacated. 

Library staff are not required to set up rooms for outside groups.   Rooms must be returned to their original state after the reservation.
