Bulletin Board Policy
Rutgers University Libraries (RUL) follow the Rutgers University Guidelines for the Posting of Notices and Flyers.
All requests to post notices and/or flyers in a library facility or at a library event must be shared with and processed by the appropriate University contact. All flyers in library facilities will advance the Rutgers University mission, vision, and values.
These guidelines apply to all requests to post written and digital materials in the Rutgers University Libraries. Only notices and flyers from recognized Rutgers-affiliated student organizations, fraternities and sororities, and departments are permitted to be posted or distributed.
The Rutgers University Libraries guidelines add the following notices:
- Notices and Flyers may only be posted in select locations approved by the library, including bulletin boards, counter space, brochure racks, or other spaces for members to post announcements of events, or brochures.
- Postings must adhere to University Policy 60.1.12: Policy Prohibiting Discrimination or Harassment
- Each library unit (Rutgers University-Camden, Rutgers University-Newark, Rutgers University-New Brunswick, Rutgers Health) should create a workflow that identifies the responsible position(s) that approves Notices and Flyers for posting within their library location(s).
- The Libraries do not officially endorse or support these postings.
- Removal schedules and other local practices are posted near the relevant space.
- The electronic bulletin boards are primarily for library notices and may include other announcements as approved by the library.
- Flyers may not be posted on walls, columns, doors, windows, stairwells, or building exteriors.
