GENERAL
POLICY
Library bulletin boards, display and exhibit
areas are intended primarily for promotion of
District services and activities. However, consistent
with the District’s role as a community
information source, these areas may be used by
community organizations and individuals on a space
available basis.
Accepting items for posting, display, or exhibit
does not constitute or imply District endorsement
of the organization submitting the item(s) or
their content.
BULLETIN BOARDS
Library bulletin boards will be used to display
information about the District and District sponsored
programs. Space will also be made available to
the public to post information on community activities,
events, and services.
Items will be accepted for posting with the following conditions:
- The space will be available to organizations
and individuals engaged in educational, cultural,
intellectual and charitable activities. When
space allows, other types of information related
to the community served by the library may be
displayed.
- To insure equitable access for the entire
community, the District may establish criteria
regarding the nature, duration of display, frequency,
and appropriateness of the material.
- The District reserves the right to remove
time-dated material or materials which do not
comply with District guidelines.
- Posted notices will clearly identify the person
or organization responsible for the contents.
- If available space isn’t sufficient
to meet demand, priority will be given to information
most closely related to the local community.
DISPLAYS and EXHIBITS
The District encourages displays and exhibits of art work, photography,
or other articles subject to the following conditions:
- The District assumes no legal or financial
responsibility for loss or damage to items loaned
for display and exhibit unless other arrangements
have been made.
- The owner's name, address, and telephone number
may be displayed. The fact that items are for
sale may be stated, but no prices may be exhibited.
- Items may be refused for display if, in the
judgment of the District, they would detract
from the appearance of the facility, are poorly
executed, or may violate any applicable provisions
of law.
- The physical characteristics of the display
or exhibit will not interfere with normal library
operations.
The Library Director is responsible for establishing administrative
procedures necessary to carry out this policy.
