Related question to SharePoint 2010 restricted document library contributors. Is it possible to allow contributors to a document library to add documents, edit their own documents, but only read (not edit) documents submitted by others?

Lists can set Item-level permissions in the UI using /_layouts/advsetng.aspx
But document libraries dont have this option in the UI
But you could try setting the same properties from powershell/code
SPList.ReadSecurity = 1

SPList.WriteSecurity = 2

I've set these permissions using powershell, but permissions are still being governed by the settings in the permissions page. Is there a certain permission level I need to set using the GUI before this will work?– nfwOct 6, 2011 at 19:30
