We have lots of cool signage and it was noted by Anne Heidemann from Canton Public Library in the Greater Detroit Area. She was visiting our library since she was in town for the PLA Results Boot Camp.

I'm so glad that someone else thinks our signage is pretty nifty. While we still get questions on where's the bathroom and the like, I think our signage is pretty informative and useful. I think when the library renovated in 2006, it gave them the opportunity to wipe the slate and start anew.
I think many libraries should do that. Sometimes there is way too much and the landscape is cluttered with signs. In some ways, I wish there were more.
Things like table tents and flyers just lying on tables to advertise activities and services. Little things can help in such a big way.
