| - I was here for a conference of sorts (specifically, the 2011 Unconference for Social Good), which was held on the third level of the building. With that in mind, I'll review the third level as a public presentation space, although full disclaimer: That space isn't yet available for the public to book, as the library is currently pilot testing the area to be used as such a space as of this writing (the library had recently acquired the room from a dance company and are currently trying to figure out how best to use the space).
The room can comfortably fit 150 people, and I was told that it recently had hosted a wedding.
The acoustics of the main room is phenomenal. Voices carry very well, and no sound system is needed to project a voice. It is the ideal space for presentations, even with 150 seated people.
The third level also holds a couple of conference rooms, as well as some basic office space. The conference rooms work well for break out groups
as they offer plenty of seating but at the same time, are intimate enough to allow you to collaborate closely with people.
Even thought the space is relatively new for the library, it would make a great public space for presentations, seminars, and other similar sessions, and I hope the Public Library leans in that direction once they're done with their pilot. If you ever have to attend an event in this space in the future, rest assured that it's a great venue.
