Libraries are essential infrastructure in our communities, providing information, entertainment, and public services. 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 Central Ohio — across multiple library systems — are coming together to build their union and have a voice at work.
