Librarians and archivists at the University of Western Ontario are on strike

A group of librarians and archivists picket outside the University of Western Ontario gates on Richmond forcing LTC buses to drop Western students off near the University of Western Ontario on Thursday September 8, 2011. Traffic was allowed to flow but the striking workers held up traffic entering the university during the walk signal impeding southbound entry into the university.

Librarians and archivists at the University of Western Ontario are on strike Thursday morning [September 8, 2011).
Talks between the workers, represented by the University of Western Ontario Faculty Association, and the university broke down Wednesday.
"The two sides remain divided, primarily over monetary issues, although the university has offered to establish a pay equity process," UWO said in a release Wednesday.
