  • Dimensions: 7 by 15 feet.
  • Includes recording and mixing equipment, and basic instrument package (guitars, bass, keyboard, and electronic drum set).
• Small 1–2-person Studio at Sherwood Village branch.
  • Dimensions: 6 by 8 feet.
  • Intended to be a convenient self-serve location for those familiar with recording.

Customers are welcome to bring their own equipment and instruments, but as much detail as possible should be provided when booking. Both spaces are maintained by the Digital Media Studio (DMS) Specialists, who may be booked by appointment for orientation and basic mentorship within available hours.

Faulty equipment or room concerns must be reported immediately. Card-holders are responsible for returning and restoring all rooms and equipment to their originally checked out conditions.

Equipment and rooms will be inspected for damage upon check-in. Customers may be present during this inspection. Any damages found will be charged to the customer and may up to the full replacement cost for the equipment. Card-holders who have outstanding charges for lost or damaged equipment may be denied Digital Media Studio privileges until the charges are reconciled.

RPL does not assume responsibility for personal items or items checked out to card-holders. Equipment usage privileges may be revoked due to careless handling of library equipment, repeated tardiness in returning library owned equipment, or damage. Please note that unattended library equipment is considered careless handling.

Equipment must be checked-out on your library card. In order to check out equipment from the Digital Media Studio you must:

• Be 14 years of age or older (Children and Special Circumstances customers should have their parents or guardians check out equipment for them)
• Have a library card with full privileges (Community Access and Unverified cards must upgrade their cards to full cards)
• Have a library card in good standing (owe less than $25, have no unpaid lost items, have no appeals in progress)

These restrictions apply to all equipment. All equipment is to be used in the library for up to three hours at a time. You must remain in the Digital Media Studio while you are using this equipment. You are responsible for any damage or loss to equipment checked out on your card. Please note that any storage media on the device will be erased when it is returned.
