Reserving a Room

The meeting rooms of Messenger Public Library (MPL) are available to support the library’s mission to inform, connect, and enrich the community of North Aurora. Rooms are used to support MPL functions, meetings, and programs. Activities sponsored or co-sponsored by the library, or a library-related organization have priority.  

  • Reservation requests are limited to: 
    • One time per calendar month, per group for the Main Meeting Room. 
    • One time per week, (defined as Monday-Sunday) per group for the Conference, Tinker, or Meeting Rooms 1 or 6. 
  • To prevent monopolization, reservations for the Main Meeting Room, the Conference Room, Tinker Youth Program Room, and Rooms 1 and 6 may be made no more than 90 days (about 3 months) in advance and should be made through our website.  
  • Online reservations must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Requests to use a room without a reservation are subject to first come, first served use with no guarantee of space availability. Same day requests must be made through the Adult Services Department (630) 896-0240, press 3. 

  • Room reservation requests by for-profit businesses or groups not defined as a 501(c)3 or civic groups must contact the Adult Services Department by phone (630) 896-0240 or email asd@messengerpl.orgFor-profit groups will be charged $25 per hour for room use. Fees must be paid prior to use by cash or check (we do not take credit card payments) or the reservation will be canceled.
