Community Room

The Windsor Locks Public Library has one meeting room available for group meetings of up to 40 people. The room is handicap accessible. Use of this room is limited to meetings and library programs only. It is not available for parties or other social gatherings.

The Community Room is available free of charge to local non-profit community service organizations and to local non-profit groups that support the educational mission of the library and the community.

Private groups and for-profit organizations will pay a fee of $75 per use (up to approximately 2 hours) for the Community Room. Additional fees may be charged for longer rental periods.

The Windsor Locks Public Library Board of Directors views the use of the Community Room as an extension of its library service to the community. These facilities are available to the library community and reflect the various roles that the library plays in the community.

The Community Room may be reserved up to one month in advance by calling the library at 627-1495.
