Working on the front lines, our library workers have encountered various risks such as keeping the library open amidst bomb threats, serving as human bomb detectors and dealing with violence and aggression. SLCPL workers should have the right to freely organize their union and secure legal rights to collectively bargain to improve working conditions, pay, benefits, and a voice on the job, and thus provide quality services for our beloved community. A union would benefit everyone because it would give a real voice to all workers, without whom the library could not function. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-slcpl-board-of-directors-respect-slcpl-workers-united
