Eagle schematic editor is having the following default layers:
91 Nets: Nets
92 Busses: Buses
93 Pins: Connection points for component symbols
with additional information
94 Symbols: Shapes of component symbols
95 Names: Names of component symbols
96 Values: Values/component types
97 Info: General information
98 Guide: Guide lines
What is the purpose of the last 2 layers, info and guide in a schematic? Is it possible to have an example? Thanks.

I've never used the Guide layer, but have used the Info layer. Info is where I write comments in the schematic, names of the sheets, and anything else that isn't the parts or the connections between them.
I just flipped thru a recent schematic and found a note indicating the name of the firmware build that will go into a micro, a note by a inductor for the maximum allowed on time before saturation, and the text "Main circuit" and "Data interface" on opposite sides of a dashed line indicating isolation.
Think of Info in schematics as being similar to Docu, tDocu, and bDocu in boards.
