Bulletin
Boards
"A bulletin board (or notice board
in British English) is a place where people can leave public
messages, for example, to advertise things to buy or sell,
announce
events, or provide
information. Bulletin boards are often made of a material
such as
cork to facilitate addition and removal of messages or it
can be placed on the computer so people can leave and erase
messages for other people to read and see.
Bulletin boards are particularly prevalent at
universities. Many sport dozens, if not hundreds or
thousands of public bulletin boards, used for everything from
advertisements by
extracurricular groups and local shops to official
notices.
Dormitory corridors, well-trafficked hallways, lobbies,
and freestanding kiosks often have cork boards attached to
facilitate the posting of notices. At some universities,
lampposts,
bollards, trees, and walls often become impromptu
postering sites in areas where official boards are sparse." Source:
