Season's Greetings from the State Library of Victoria | 
If you take the library staff out of the library… the results is not going to be good.
If you are in Melbourne, there is a rally next weekend. If you are concerned about the general direction of this decision, there is a petition campaign being run by CPSU Victoria ⬇️

CarolynM 🤬 I assume this is all part of the Vic government‘s current mass cost cutting exercise. Seems a very short sighted set of decisions and quite a U-turn from the State Library‘s previous push for more public engagement. 5d
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @CarolynM, the board is stacked with people with no library background (a story that is all too common for our public libraries too). Lots of them are in acting roles, the more you read about it, the worse it gets. 4d
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @LeeRHarry, it‘s all very depressing! Thanks for signing 📚 4d
