Library Unions!

This article by a Milwaukee librarian underscores how essential unionizing can be for librarians.  Unlike the teachers, though, we do not have a national union.  I wonder if an organization like that could help further professionalize and standardize our profession, setting salary levels, fighting for our rights, it seems like it could only be a good thing. 

From the author: "Silent acquiescence to the idea we are valueless to our communities will hurt us forever."  Amen.
