[Libs-Or] weapons prohibited signage

[Kimbre Chapman]

When I was working in Idaho, people would carry guns into the public library.   My director said there wasn't anything that could be done about this because if they were licensed, they had a legal right to carry the weapons.  The only action I was told would be okay was to not permit the guns in the children's room.  I imagine that what kind of signs you can put up is dependent upon where you are located.  I agree that checking with your attorney is good route to go.

Talk with your attorney, putting a sign up can be a really "loaded" action.  

Our city council had to remove theirs as our state representative is very pro gun and fought them on it and won. I don't know the details, but...
