There are multiple meeting spaces available for public use within the library. If you wish to reserve one of the meeting rooms, please click here to fill out an online request, or print and return a completed application (PDF) to the library.
In 2025, through an LSTA grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, FLPL completed an upgrade to the audio and video technology in the Conference and Board rooms. All meeting rooms now have the capability to host teleconferencing meetings. Special thank you to IMLS for their support of our Library.
