Standing Committee on the Salaries and Status of Library Workers
Members serve for two years. The Standing Committee and
its subcommittees
have been extremely active! Thus far, they have planned
or coordinated:
- Advocacy video featuring library workers telling why pay equity is critical in libraries
- The first annual National Library Workers Day on Tuesday, April 20th
- Four programs for Annual Conference 2004 - negotiation, better communication skills for managers, video screening, and a union networking breakfast
- An exhibit booth at Annual Conference 2004
The ALA-APA Bylaws state that "there shall be a standing committee of seven to nine members, appointed by the ALA-APA Board of Directors, to guide ALA-APA activities in support of better salaries, comparable worth, pay equity, and similar programs related to the status of librarians and other library workers. This committee will report to the ALA-APA Council at each regular meeting." |
