Bad signs exist in all types of libraries, victimizing users without bias and leading to some unwelcome encounters. It makes me wonder if a bad sign is truly better than nothing or just making things worse.</p> </blockquote> <p>Check out the full article.  Remember if we wouldn&#8217;t put the sign on the front page of the website, it may not be smart to put it on any wall.  As always, please feel free to submit photos.</p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2402490045http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2402490045Tue, 21 Dec 2010 09:28:51 -0500<p>You may submit library signage photos directly to the site by clinking on the submission button (anonymously) or you may email them directly to me anthony.molaro@gmail.com</p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2388870905http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2388870905Mon, 20 Dec 2010 10:59:25 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldopn3mWNw1qfc7h5o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A favorite library sign.  Photo Credit: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelsphotos/206605150/in/set-72157594224183533/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelsphotos/206605150/in/set-72157594224183533/</a></p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2375007989http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2375007989Sun, 19 Dec 2010 11:54:38 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldmwmrXiBd1qfc7h5o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldmwmrXiBd1qfc7h5o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldmwmrXiBd1qfc7h5o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldmwmrXiBd1qfc7h5o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldmwmrXiBd1qfc7h5o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>All from Dominican University.  In all fairness to Dominican, the person responsible for these signs is no longer employed by the university.  Oh, and the no food signs are awesome because the library has a full pizza and sandwich cafe.</p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361819790http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361819790Sat, 18 Dec 2010 12:30:25 -0500<p>This is a terrific idea for a forum I am looking forward to adding to it and seeing what is found.</p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361595774http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361595774Sat, 18 Dec 2010 12:09:13 -0500<p>This is a space to share library signs.  I hope to include both wonderful library signage as well as passive-aggressive library signs.  All posts will be anonymous, and should include the library name or location.  </p> <p>The idea for this space is inspired by the work of Andy and his<a href="http://aviewfromyourdesk.tumblr.com/"> A View From Your Desk</a> as well as Nicole&#8217;s <a href="http://librarianwardrobe.tumblr.com/">Librarian Wardrobe</a>.   </p>http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361194698http://librarysignage.tumblr.com/post/2361194698Sat, 18 Dec 2010 11:29:00 -0500
