Bulletin Board Use

It is recognized that the library is a popular location for the promotion of events and services offered by groups and organizations on campus.  In the spirit of campus community, posting is allowed on the large bulletin board in the Burke Library entrance, within the following guidelines:

  • Posters should be no larger than 11 x 17 (8½ x 11 preferred).
  • Limit to one poster per event.
  • Posters/flyers should be removed after the event.
  • Use tacks (provided) in each corner to secure.
  • Posters advertising ongoing activities or ones without dates should be toward the top of the board.
  • Posters should not be overlapping.

Postings not adhering to the guidelines may be removed.
