How do employees and student organizations reserve event space in the library?
Answer
For those affiliated with MSMC, the Kaplan Library offers rooms of varying sizes, configurations, and features that are suitable for lectures, readings, conferences, receptions, and other events (Room DC 218, Green Room and Orange Room, all on the second floor). If you are considering one of these areas for your event, a visit the to the library to view the space is essential PRIOR to reserving it to ensure that it meets your needs. Once you have identified the right space, you can reserve it via the MSMC portal under Resources>Administrative Information>Room Reservation Request (ASTRA). You must also submit separate work orders to facilities, IT, and catering whether it be for room set-up, technical support, or food, if any of these services are necessary for your event. The library is not able to provide this assistance.
