Good sign for the library
Kendahl:
There is no need for a sign where concealed carry is legal. Posting one would draw unwanted attention. Out of sight is out of mind. On the other hand, where it is not legal even with a permit, it's polite to post a sign.
OnTheFly:
First, good for you Mr. Kelly for being the precipitous of change. Second, a sign would be a mistake. As several have already stated, no attention is good attention. All it takes is one hoplophobe to get excited and gather together with others of like ignorance to start some kind of official complaint.
Be happy with your win, but enjoy it in silence and without signage.

The city building across the street is not marked.
If it is tell me which door.

Of course, the third floor is the City Council meeting place (where CC is prohibited by statute); but, that doesn't require a sign. Maybe a "reminder" sign would be good so I don't forget and enter the meeting carrying.
I can't think of any other reason for the prohibited sign on the entire building. Anyone else

City Hall is not posted.
Also, it is legal on 3rd floor, even in Chambers .. Unless an official meeting is going on, then prohibited by state statute.

The no carry sign is not on the Library anymore.
City Hall has not been marked for a long-time; however, the Library was until very recently.
The Library was under a slightly different governance structure with an independent Board of Trustees; however, with a recent change by the City Council to that governance - the Library Board is a advisory role and the building now the same as any other city building under Administration.
With that recent change I could then have the sign removed so it is consistent with City Hall.
NOTE:
If you are looking at the Library in your own town and going to talk to Administration about any concerns or issues it will be important for you to understand if your local library is "Governance" or "Advisory". State Legislature authorized both models and the local municipality chooses. If "Governance" the Mayor/Administrator can't help much as you'll need to go the Library Trustees. If "Advisory" then the Mayor/Administrator should be able to help.
