Social Media Policy
The Pitts Theology Library maintains a social media presence on a variety of platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Below are the policies dictating Pitts' social media use. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact a Pitts reference librarian.
- Pitts Theology Library does not collect, maintain, or otherwise use personal information stored on any third party site in any way other than to communicate with users on that site. We will never use your content without explicit permission.
- At any time, users may remove themselves from Pitts Theology Library social media lists. Pitts Theology Library reserves the right to remove any posts or comments. Reasons for removal include, but are not limited to: inappropriate language, solicitations or spam, or off-topic comments.
- Pitts Theology Library assumes no liability regarding any event or interaction created or posted by any participant in any library-sponsored social media, and unless otherwise noted, does not endorse content outside the “pages” created by Pitts staff. These guidelines only govern official Pitts Theology Library social media accounts and do not apply to the personal accounts of staff members.
- Pitts Theology Library is not responsible or liable for content posted by subscribers in any forum, message board, or other social media resource, and such subscriber comments do not reflect the opinions and/or positions of Pitts Theology Library, the Candler School of Theology, its administrators, or its employees.
- Patrons and visitors who participate in Pitts events grant Pitts permission to use any photographs in Pitts’ own publications or in any print or electronic media. This permission grants Pitts the right to use the image with or without names and for any lawful purpose, including such purposes as publicity, illustration, advertising, and Web content. If at any point a patron or visitor does not feel comfortable being photographed at a Pitts event or having that photography reproduced, he or she should consult a staff member immediately.
