In order to meet the needs of our patrons and to set standards that allow us to recruit and retain highly skilled staff, librarians and library workers need a voice. We also need and deserve fair treatment and job security.
That’s why library workers in Ohio — across multiple library systems — are coming together to build their unions and have a voice at work. Here’s a look at what we’ve accomplished so far.
