| Both the
Middlesboro and Pineville branches have Community Rooms which are used
not only for library-sponsored programming but also for meetings of
community groups. |

The Community Room
as a meeting room is a service provided free of charge to the citizens
of Bell County. Generally, only organized not-for-profit groups may use
the community room. No activity that would damage the building or
furnishings, such as dancing, karate, or other movement exercises will
be allowed. The community room may not be
used for partisan political or religious activities on a regular basis.
Alcoholic beverages and firearms may not be brought into or used in the
community room or on library property. The community room may not be
reserved for regular, consecutive meetings, unless the activity of the
group is open to the public, is educational in nature, and is sanctioned
by the Library Board of Trustees. |

Those
individuals requesting the room for commercial purposes, such as Avon,
Weight Watchers, or health workshops may reserve the room, if available
and with Board approval, by making a deposit of $50.00 in advance. If
the room is left in good order, clean, and nothing damaged, $25.00 of
the deposit will be refunded. Any individual renting or using the
community room must be over 21 years of age and state the purpose of the
meeting. The Community Room may not be scheduled for showers, birthday
parties, etc.

| The
organization member requesting use of the community room must complete a
User Permission Form prior to booking the room. Upon approval by the
Library Board, the person reserving the room must check out a key and
list any AV equipment needed, and sign a form promising to be
responsible for the condition of the room, and agreeing to return it to
the state in which they found it, and assuming responsibility for any
lost or damaged equipment, furniture, or any other damage to the
library. All meetings must end and the building vacated by 11 p.m. |
