Abstract
The article argues for the potential, appropriateness and conspicuous representation of messages by signage within the library space. The placement is not restricted to shelves for print and directions for electronic resources acquired for patrons use. It has been discovered that challenges abound but the essence is to encourage libraries to sustain and maintain signage’s and when old, turn or mutilated be replaced immediately because of the significant roles it play for facilitation, directing, pointing and positioning of acquired information resources. It is worthy to suggest that library management should make funds available to the technical unit responsible for making befitting signs and creative expressions of obtainable services and resources.
