Congratulations to UC librarians on their new contract. Hard-won--a year of bargaining--but well-deserved raises, annual PD funds, and freedom to work remotely. www.dailycal.org/news/campus/... great work @kklevine.bsky.social

On 10/24 the NLRB certified the votes & Penn Libraries United won the right to join Local 590. My new siblings sure could use some words of encouragement from the #labor community as we begin the hard work of negotiating the 1st contract. Show 'em some love, BlueSky!
