Oldsmar Public Library Solicitation/Petitioning Policy

From time to time there are requests by residents to petition on Library property.

NO SOLICITATION OF ANY KIND IS PERMITTED INSIDE LIBRARY BUILDINGS

Petitioners may solicit outside library buildings after first obtaining a temporary use permit from the City of Oldsmar in compliance with provisions of Oldsmar City Ordinances, Part III (Land Development Code), Section 14.4

The following guidelines are to be followed:

  • Activities must be conducted outside the building and petitioner is to supply his own equipment (table, chairs, etc.)
  • Petitioner is not to block any entrance to the building. Traffic flow by users entering and exiting the building shall not be impeded. It is recommended that the petitioner set up some distance from the entrance.
  • Signs may be allowed, but they must be attached to the petitioner's table. Signs promoting the petitioner cannot be placed on doors or building.
  • Petitioner must in no way affiliate him/herself with the Library or the City of Oldsmar either through written publicity, signage, or verbal statements.
