Hey folks, just a head's up: today's Boston Globe has several stories about the Boston Public Library (BPL) venue. It includes costs.
{edited to fix links that broke the page....sorry}
[QUOTE]Based on four-hour occupancy, room rental fees run from $4,200 for the Popular Reading Room (where most sit-down dinners are held), to $14,700 for the entire second floor of McKim, including Bates Hall, the cavernous room with the elegant, barrel-arched ceiling and busts of famous authors and Bostonians....Add on food, beverage, and equipment rental costs of $165 to $300 per person - charged by The Catered Affair, which holds an exclusive catering contract with the library and operates an onsite kitchen and planning office - and the final tab, even before the band gets its check, can run well into the high five figures.[/QUOTE]
