The Merrick Library is opening a business center at which independent contractors such as academic tutors and financial advisers can meet with clients, or job prospects can engage in online interviews

The center will be at the Merrick Library Wing, 2369 Merrick Ave., a block south of the main library. Users can reserve one of four carrels at $10 per hour, without Skype capabilities. A conference room with Skype access can be rented for $15 per hour. And the parlor can be reserved for more casual meetings at $15 per hour.

To make a reservation, call the Merrick Library’s media desk at (516) 377-6112, ext. 125 or the business center at (516) 771-1086 during hours of operation. The center will be open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Payment must be made before the reserved time at the wing or media desk.
