CICERO — Your public library is an excellent spot if you’re looking to meet with a study partner, have a private meeting, or if you need a place to gather a group. For example, at the Northern Onondaga Public Library (NOPL), our rooms are used for various uses, such as homeschooling parents, knitting circles, non-profit organizations, tutoring, and more.
Recently medical professionals and the local court staff have reached out to request room reservations for remote patron appointments utilizing the library’s reliable Wi-Fi and quiet study rooms, which are ideal circumstances for private online communications.
The Northern Onondaga Public Library has upgraded its interior spaces, especially its community rooms, with new paint and more. The Community Rooms at Cicero and North Syracuse branches with an 80-person capacity have had a complete overhaul with newly installed flooring and a kitchen consisting of a fridge, microwave, stove, and dishwasher.
NOPL is also equipped with projectors, screens, and sound for professional gatherings. Comfortable stacking tables and chairs offer limitless room configurations for any meeting. In addition, the Brewerton Branch, with its 30-person capacity space, has a Smart TV that can connect to the internet, laptop, or other devices for presentations.
The North Syracuse Branch has two study rooms that can comfortably accommodate four people, and the Cicero Branch has a small meeting room that is good for a small group meeting of eight or fewer people. Cicero will start taking reservations for their small meeting room starting mid-September.
To request a room reservation, call or visit your local branch. For more information about our meeting spaces and NOPL’s meeting room policy, visit nopl.org/meeting-rooms.
