Booking Studio Spaces and Workstations
Reservations are required for:
- Both Self-Serve Sound Studios (Central Library and Sherwood Village Branch)
- The Green Screen Flex Studio (including 3D Scanning)
- All digital media computer workstations
Customers using the Digital Media Studio should bring their own storage devices or create personal cloud storage accounts to save their work. We can provide external storage devices for customers to check out or purchase and use if their personal storage devices have been forgotten or are at capacity. However, availability is not guaranteed.
Media computer workstations, Flex Studio (green screen and 3D scanning), and both Self-Serve Sound Studios are bookable in 3 hour blocks during Digital Media Studio hours. The total booking time must not exceed 3 hours a week and 4 sessions per month. Open slots are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Sessions maybe extended at the discretion of staff, depending on availability.
Digital Media Studio spaces must not be left unattended while reserved and in use. If the responsible card-holder leaves without notifying library staff (even if others are present from their group), the reservation will be forfeited, and future reservations may be denied.
Once vacated for more than 15 minutes, RPL reserves the right to remove customer belongings without assuming responsibility or liability thereof and to reassign the space to an available status.
- Customers will require a valid SILS library card to reserve studio spaces.
- The library card used to make the reservation must match the card presented upon check-in.
- If the customer does not have their card present when checking in, a reasonable effort will be made to validate that the customer was the one who made the reservation.
- That member will be responsible for damage or loss of equipment, workstations, or studio space.
- Library cards are also required to check out equipment though further restrictions also apply to equipment check out.
Customers must cancel studio space reservations at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled use. Failure to provide 48 hours' notice of a cancellation may be grounds for suspension of Digital Media Studio privileges.
Customers who have not arrived within 15 minutes of the scheduled start time of their reservation will be considered no-shows and the reservation will be removed. Customers who show up late will not have their session extended.
