“Hourly employees are kept out of most policy decisions and we’re also being asked to take on more and more duties without being compensated. I support forming a union because I want to have a say in how we design the roles and responsibilities in this work that I love.”
Thank you to Franklin County state legislators for supporting library workers & urging CML to commit to neutrality!
