Weapons are prohibited in public buildings as per ORS 166.370 -

that statute.

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...
