PARTICIPATE AND SHARE YOUR VISION
Scan the QR code to fill out our online survey:
The Sunnyvale Main Library is a vital place for culture, connection and life long learning within our community. Built in 1960, the Library has not been renovated since 1983. We are not able to meet the demand for programs and services with the current facility. We are exploring revitalizing the Library as part of the Civic Center Modernization project. We want to hear your thoughts to ensure the project meets the needs of the community.
Let’s bring this vision to life together!

It is further understood and agreed that this waiver, release and assumption of risks has been freely entered into and is to be binding on my/ our heirs and assigns.
Additionally, I fully understand that that my participation in the above-referenced activity exposes me to the risk of personal injury, death, communicable diseases, illnesses, viruses and/or property damage. Knowing the risks, nevertheless, I hereby acknowledge that I and/or the named Minor am voluntarily participating in this activity agree to assume those risks on behalf of me and/or the above named Minor and to release and to hold harmless all of the persons or entities mentioned above who (through negligence or carelessness) might otherwise be liable to me and/or the above named Minor (or my/our heirs or assignees) for damages.
VIRTUAL (ONLINE) CLASS RELEASE: I hereby warrant and agree, that the conditions of my environment are safe, free from obstructions and are suitable for participation in the above-referenced activity. I further understand and agree that any material downloaded, viewed or otherwise obtained through my participation in said activity is done at my own risk and the City is not responsible for any loss, alteration, corruption or other damage to my personal property, including computers, networks and other property used as part of my participation. I further understand that virtual classes may be recorded and agree to any such recording.

COVID-19 AND OTHER COMMUNICABLE DISEASES: I agree, understand and acknowledge, that an inherent risk of exposure to the disease COVID-19 (as defined by the World Health Organization and any strains, variants, or mutations thereof) and SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that can cause COVID-19) (collectively, “COVID-19”) and any other communicable or infectious disease, exists in any public place where people are present. “Communicable disease” means any disease or illness caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi that can be spread, directly or indirectly, from one person to another. “Infectious disease” means any disease or illness caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi that enter the body, multiply and can cause an infection.
