uc-aft unit 17 negotiations

To UC librarians:

In the ratification vote held last week, members of UC-AFT approved
the tentative agreement with the University.

The final tally of all ballots was 173 in favor of ratification and 15 opposed.

Campus votes were as follows (# in favor -- # opposed):

Berkeley/UCSF: 36-1
Davis: 20-0
Santa Cruz: 5-13
Santa Barbara: 14-0
UCLA: 46-1
Riverside: 17-0
Irvine: 19-0
San Diego: 16-0

Thanks to all who voted.

The union will now begin the process of organizing for the resumption
of bargaining over salary and other economic issues. We will be in
touch very soon to inform you about opportunities to participate in
this next stage of librarian bargaining.

In solidarity,

Karen Sawislak
Executive Director
UC-AFT
