I've never tried it in this specific situation, but one of my tricks
for labeling, which even works on porous surfaces like wood, is to
write or print the labels proper on heavy paper, preferably
cardstock. Next, paint both the back of the label, and the surface
to which it will attach, with rubber cement. Let the rubber cement
dry until slightly tacky, then press the label onto the prepared
area. Burnish it with the back of a spoon or a similar smooth surface.
If the receiving surface is rough, be sure to use enough rubber
cement to smooth the surface. Once things are dry, the label stays
solidly in place, but is easy to pull off with a blade or fingernail
under one corner. I've the unfinished particleboard shelves in my
library labeled this way for years.
