Pictorial Examples of IUN Library Signage  Current
View: Circulation Desk. Note hanging sign above file cabinets.
 Old
View: Elevators. The wall directory to the left was the only professionally
produced sign. The elevators' black upon black color made them difficult
to locate, and the position of the directory, as well as the directory's
black coloring, did little to assist users. The directory was removed
and replaced with locally created art works.
Current View: Elevators. Notice the directory installed between elevators.
Placing the directory here had two benefits: information was now located
immediately in front of the entrance and the directory produced a visual
differentiation between the black on black elevators. Art work now flanks
each side of the elevators to further differentiate the area.
 Old
View: Exit. Note the complete absence of signs and the confusing array
of turnstiles adjacent to the right of the actual exit.
Current View: Exit. A hanging sign has been installed over the exit and
adhesive signs placed on both sides of the crash bar.
 Current
View: Online Catalog Cluster. A hanging sign now designates the area.
 Current
View: Reference Desk. This area now includes two service desks and is
identified by a hanging sign.
 Old
View: One of our Periodical tables. Examples of signage utilized prior
to the project included handwritten paper signs of varying sizes and typefaces,
engraved signs, and pre-cut adhesives.
