Very much appreciate your making the room available. Library staff & the reservation system were both was great. The room was clean & nice & we had a good meeting. Two things to consider. Our monthly meeting lasts for 2 hours. Would be so good, for us, to be able to reserve a 2.5 hour block to allow time for setup & teardown. The other thing is that the room could use a bit of sound dampening which would improve the ambiance & functionality of the room a lot! Thx!

This was our first use of a room at Mitchell Park Library and our first use of Liquidspace. Worked like a charm. The room was ready when we arrived, and we were warmly welcomed by a staff person who made sure we had access to the space. Could not have gone better!

I wanted a space where I could quietly practice my power point presentation I'm giving overseas. The library did not honor my request bc my partner ended up not being able to attend. I asked to simply stay until another party wanted to use the space but they again denied the request. I saw the space was empty the entire time I had booked it for. In this particular situation, using liquidspace was useless.

The monitor was not working so well. There is no remote control to adjust the screen ratio.

Quiet, small space for a group of up to 8. A bit tight behind the chairs but if sitting the whole time, it works. White board was a plus. Some chairs would not adjust. A highly sought after space so reserving early is necessary. No fee is a plus.

A valuable asset to our community! The meeting rooms are bright & clean, and it's easy to make reservations.

We used the TV monitor. I only wished it supported HDMI other than just VGA. Other than that everything was great.

The conference rooms are a really, really great public library resource/ service. The Liquid Space booking system is AWESOME. I don't take this for granted. I've come to expect *terrible* systems for things like public resource reservations, this is just the opposite. I commend the team that selected the system and placed value on good design and functionality. Keep it up and let management know that this is important to patrons!
I would give input for the Mitchell Park conference rooms-- install an HDMI connection to the monitors pretty please. It's available at the Rinconada branch. HDMI is the industry standard now, typically expected. It gives higher image quality, includes audio & video in one cable and automatically sets the display to match the user's computer- **including high resolution.** It is "smart" to make technical setup more automatic with ***less need for IT support***. A big deal for efficient conf room management, saving time and requiring less technical expertise to provide high user satisfaction.

Great space. Thanks to the PAL for providing it.
Looks like the two available rooms are quite popular. I was lucky to be able to book a room at the desired time. Wonder if the fact that there isn't a "no show" fee might encourage over-booking. How about a minimal no-show fee (even $1, like you have for not picking up a reserved book) if this proves to be a problem.
The LiquidSpace app works great for booking the rooms and sending the meeting info to participants.

Great overall. Only input is to make the HDMI monitor connection available and keep the monitor set to a higher default resolution for VGA if possible.

Nice facility. One issue is the video connector on my Dell laptop is not compatible with their video project. The librarian has only iPad or iPhone adapter. So I need to bring my own next time.

Room was nice but whiteboard was missing an eraser and the one marker was dried out.

Perefect space for meeting. Very quiet, clean and convenient.
Also booking is very easy.

Great room. Equipment was really easy to use. Only downside is library doesn't open doors until 10am, so we didn't have time to prep for our meeting. We would use this space again.

Availability of two small meeting rooms provides excellent location for short and small meetings. Late afternoon time slots are competitive sometimes.
