Invermere Library Workers Join CUPEINVERMERE, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Nov 26, 2012 (Marketwire via COMTEX) -- Library workers at the Invermere Public Library have voted unanimously in favour of joining CUPE. Nicole Pawlak, a community librarian at the Invermere Public Library, says that the five library workers are looking forward to moving ahead with this new chapter. "Library workers are front-line employees who carry out the day-to-day operations at the library," says Pawlak. "We feel that by joining CUPE we will have a stronger voice and be able to better serve our community." Pawlak says the decision to pick CUPE as the union to represent Invermere library workers was easy. "CUPE is a large union and by becoming part of CUPE we will now have access to a wide array of information, education tools and resources. We are confident that CUPE will be able to help us negotiate a fair collective agreement which both reflects the needs of the staff and keeps the best of interest of the library and its patrons in mind."
