Meeting Spaces at Branch Libraries
How to Reserve a Community Room
Community Rooms are intended for use by groups of at least four people. Rooms must be reserved at least 24 hours in advance, and may be reserved by room, or date and time.
- Make sure you have reviewed the Denver Public Library Meeting Space Policy and Terms of Use.

How to Reserve a Study Room
Study Rooms are spaces intended for use by one person up to the capacity of the specific room, and are currently only available by reservation at the Sam Gary Branch Library. Other branch library locations may have Study Rooms available as walk-ups on a first come, first served basis.
