By Room will allow you to view all rooms that can be reserved at each location. Selecting Room Details will take you to information about the chosen room, as well as its openings by week, split into days and 15-minute time increments. Available times will be in white with a blue plus sign (+) to the right of them. Click on the plus sign to be directed to the reservation request form. If a section does not contain a plus sign, then it is not available. Additionally, when reserving a room, the form will ask about setup time and teardown time. If this time exceeds into either the library's opening, closing, or another meeting, than your reservation will not be made.
By Day will let you search by available days and time periods in 15-minute increments, and allow you to filter those dates by library branch as well. Rooms that match your search filters will appear in the results, with options to view Room Details or to directly Reserve This Room.
