Librarians Eliminated at London District Catholic School Board

Due to declining enrollment, seven school librarian positions as well as a number of other support staff positions will be eliminated from the London District Catholic School Board in Ontario. This will leave 29 librarians for the district's 45 elementary schools. Moira Bell, CUPE Local 4186 president, stated: "Administration is proposing balancing the budget on the backs of front-line workers. CUPE workers are feeling disposable, devalued and dismissed".
