As space permits, fliers and promotional materials may be displayed for nonprofit and educational organizations on bulletin boards and in designated display areas only.
- Only fliers for upcoming Library programs or events, or those pertaining to Library-related associations (e.g. Friends of the Washington-Centerville Public Library, American Library Association, etc.) may be displayed on service desks or special displays.
Requests for display may be submitted to staff at the circulation desk at either building.
All items submitted for consideration are accepted by the Library on an unconditional basis and may not be returned to the donor. Library management will use the following criteria for decisions:
- No political, partisan, controversial, or commercial materials will be posted or placed for distribution.
- Items will be posted no more than thirty days prior to the date of an event.
- Items without definite end dates will remain posted for no more than three weeks.
- Community partners and government organizations may be allotted an extended amount of time on a case-by-case basis.
- Oversized materials (larger than 8.5”x11”) are strongly discouraged due to space constraints.
Designated library staff will initial/date materials prior to posting them on a public bulletin board. Any unauthorized materials placed in designated display areas by patrons or staff will be subject to removal.
