Their website stipulates that they are only made available to "Cambridge-based
not-for-profit community groups... Rooms must be reserved by ... a Cambridge
resident."

I assume we most likely still have membership in Cambridge, but this seems to be a
common restriction on public meeting spaces, especially at libraries in more urban
areas (whereas the rural libraries generally have less meeting space!)

(I've come to find this is a problem when trying to find a common meeting space
central to a group of people that don't live anywhere near the central area)
