Preamble to a manifesto for Library & Information
workers.
We the landless urban poor.
We who help all.
We whose skills and labour enriches all.
High skilled
&
Low Payed.
We who help others to achieve a better life.
We who help to educate all.
We who help all of society to work better,
play harder,
and
achieve both healthier & happier lives.
We fiscally impoverished Library & information workers.
All we ask for is a living wage,
&
just enough so that we no longer have to live in poverty,
or
are forced to live in slums.
We the landless Urban poor.
High skilled.
Low payed.
Library & Information workers.
