Some notable parts in this article (will need to scroll down). Especially:
 * NCSU LIBRARIES [|Mobile Article]**
 * "NCSU Libraries Mobile"
 * (Katie may find this of particular interest) "4-H & NC State: Leading Together"
 * "Guiding Principles" - I really liked how they talked about ensuring it's sustainability, once launched.

This is only in addition to the cool examples Heather has shown above. Let's either laminate and carefully place the signs so they won't get torn up and/or have signs made on stronger material (i.e. foam core).
