Don't most librarians get a raise every year? When my staff tells me
they'd rather not have a raise in order to save our clients some money,
I'll not increase our rates. By the way, our rates have only gone up once
in the last 2.5 years. During that time we have increased salaries
twice.
If, and this is a big if, a contractor takes over the operation of the
B&M library, they won't be supporting the decision to lay off the old
staff. They will be supporting their right to seek work, thereby keeping
their librarians employed.
