These may include anything from religious pamphlets and Armed Forces brochures to propaganda on controverisal issues or leaflets on folk dancing events. These are placed on the table without any endorsement or comment by the Library for the public to use if they so choose.
Literature intended primarily as advertising to promote the financial gain of an individual or a profit-making organization is not allowed.
In the foyer signs may be displayed on the circular and rectangular bulletin boards. In order to be displayed, signs must adhere to the Signs and Information Table Policy.
