The Jacksonville Daily Record Reports some good news for fans of drinking and reading. Alcohol is officially allowed in the Main Library, but there’s no boozing next to the bookshelves for now. The library has tight guidelines for alcohol consumption, and the verdict on drinking at the planned Shelby’s Coffee Shoppe isn’t in yet.
The City recently amended an ordinance to allow alcohol to be served at private parties in the library’s conference facilities. That specific scenario is the only one allowed by the Board of Library Trustees so far, according to library spokeswoman Stacie Bucher. She added that other limitations may apply.
