Library workers refuse to be quiet in equal-pay fight

Another really bad headline: “Library workers refuse to be quiet in equal-pay fight” You can take the librarians out of the library, but you can’t stop them from knowing the answers to your questions.

On the picket lines for the first time in their 77-year history, Vancouver library workers have turned their knowledge into a one-stop information booth for tourists and residents.

“Just keep going four blocks down this street. The Chapters is on your left,” picket captain Peter DeGroot advised one slightly lost pedestrian this week.

“The bus stop is on that side.”
