YPRL Notice Boards in The Library
YPRL Notice Boards in The Library
Yarra Plenty Regional Library Service provides noticeboards for organisations and community
groups to advertise activities of a cultural,informational and educational purpose. Material must
fall within the guidelines of the Equal Opportunity Act and notices therefore should not
discriminate against gender, religion or racial background. The library service has an obligation
to present both sides of the argument wherever possible on controversial issues.
1. The notice boards are not available for commercial advertising, ie direct advertising of
commercial products.
3. Material from individuals and government organisations offering fee based programs may be
accepted if it sustains the cultural and educational services in the community, eg CAE, Living
and Learning Centres are acceptable.
4. Notices advertising skills tuition eg guitar classes, mathematics coaching are acceptable if they
are not provided for commercial gain.
8. Surveys other than library or Council surveys are not to be conducted within the library
building unless they have prior approval from the CEO.
Display cabinets
3. The library service will not accept any responsibility for items whilst they are on display.
Procedures
Notices will be assessed by library staff to assess their suitability and space considerations. If
there is any doubt, the Branch Manager will make the final decision.
Notices that do not have a timeframe will be removed after a period of 2 months. Size does
matter! Large posters will only be displayed if they do not disadvantage other items in the
noticeboard.
Library related material will only be displayed at Circulation and Information desks.
