  • Are you a library employee?
    You deserve a union!

    New York State United Teachers (NYSUT) is one of the nation’s largest and most successful labor unions. Committed to improving workplace conditions for employees statewide, NYSUT represents nearly 700,000 members in New York state schools, colleges and healthcare facilities.  

We want you to join us.
Having a union gives you a voice. 

Unionized employees get: 

  • Higher pay 
  • Better health and retirement benefits 
  • A voice in workplace issues
  • Increased job security 
  • Access to professional development, discount programs and other union services 
NYSUT cares about helping ALL employees.

When employees get the professional respect, support and compensation they deserve, everyone wins.   

  • Top-down managerial decisions don’t always benefit you.  
  • You deserve to be heard.  
  • Unionizing allows you to speak with a unified voice.
