Meeting Spaces
The Dormann has several spaces which may be reserved for patron use. The Community Room is our largest and may be used for meetings, programs, and parties. The Conference Room has a table and chairs for six, and is located off a quiet hallway in the Annex. The Quiet Room has a couch and a variety of toys for young children; a perfect place for family visitations or as a calming place for anyone experiencing overstimulation. The large table near the Café may also be reserved for a meeting of up to 12 people.
