Bulletin Board Policy
Hoboken Public Library maintains bulletin boards for posting notices of charitable, civic, cultural, educational, or intellectual events taking place in our community (city and county). Only civic groups, governmental units, museums, nonprofit organizations, and service clubs promoting events are acceptable sponsors of brochures, flyers, and notices for posting.
Notices that promote a particular political party, candidate(s), political cause, religion, house of worship, or worldview are not eligible for inclusion. Advertisements and other announcements of a purely commercial nature are not permitted. Notices must be legibly printed, and not of excessive size.
All requests to post notices and/or flyers in a Library facility, on a bulletin board, or at a Library event must be shared with, and processed by, the Assistant Director or their designee, and must be approved by the Assistant Director, whose decision shall be final. Not all requests for posting will be granted, with priority given to notices which most closely align with the Library’s mission statement.
Posting on the Library bulletin board does not imply sponsorship or endorsement of any activity, group, or program. Posts will be taken down once the event they advertise has passed, or at any earlier time, as determined by the Library in its sole discretion. The Library assumes no responsibility for the preservation or protection of any item displayed or exhibited. All items placed in the Library are done so at the owner’s risk.
