Peoria citizens are behind library employees’ informational picket

 

Employees of the Peoria Public Library held a demonstration outside of the Main Library Branch of N.E. Monroe St. on Tuesday evening.(3/21/2023).

Leaders of the demonstration hope that the public will be informed of the current ongoing negotiations between employees and management regarding pay raises.

Karla Wilkinson is a programming librarian and union steward representing the AFSCME Local 3464. She hopes a public forum will encourage library board members to take action.
