The Bastrop Public Library encourages public use of its meeting facilities in keeping with the library's overall mission to provide library services for people of all ages.

 

The Public Room Policy refers to general guidelines and procedures for the use of the library's meeting rooms. Additional guidelines and rules may be required of groups on a case-by-case basis as the need arises or as the Library Director deems necessary. The City of Bastrop reserves the right to revise this Policy, as it deems necessary or from time to time.


Use of library meeting rooms by any group signifies acceptance of the terms of this policy.


The City of Bastrop is committed to compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Reasonable modifications and equal access to communications will be provided upon request.


Please refer to the Public Meeting room FAQs or address questions not covered within this policy to library administration at (512) 332-8881.

 

Please check our calendar for availability. If you have questions, please contact Terry Carwell.

  • Community Bulletin Board

    In addition to the Pressley Meeting Room and Maynard Conference Room, we have a community bulletin board and display case where community members are welcome to share flyers and wares.

    Only the following groups/events may submit a flyer to be posted:

    • Local groups
    • Meetings
    • Cultural events
    • Non-partisan political groups
    • Fundraising events for nonprofit organizations
    • Educational opportunities (whether they are for-profit or nonprofit)
    • Other services that are of a nonprofit, non-self supporting nature

     

    Flyers must be 8.5x11", no larger, and are to be submitted at the Information desk. Flyers posted without permission by library staff will be taken down.

     

    Because they may be seen by children or adults, all content on the flyers must meet what is generally known as "a standard acceptable to the community".
