Throughout the 38 years since its foundation, Biographical Literature has resolutely maintained two "three no's" policies: editorially, it does not publish articles under pseudonyms, does not publish purely laudatory articles, and does not publish articles previously published elsewhere; and operationally it does not accept advertising, does not accept government or private subsidies, and does not actively market itself.
「傳記文學」自創刊迄今已近三十八個年頭，一直堅持其編輯和經營上的兩個「三不政策」：「不登以化名或筆名發表的文章，不刊登應酬文章，也不登其他刊物發表過的文章」，以及「不要廣告、不要政府或私人贊助、以及不主動推銷」。
