Neutrality Policy
The Harford County Public Library does not support nor will it endorse particular candidates or issues during special, primary, or general elections. The library will remain neutral.

Campaign materials will not be displayed. The information regarding the political candidates and campaign issues will be available at each branch for public access.
Political solicitations and/or petitioning of the library patrons on library property is prohibited.
