LIBRARY JOURNAL’S MOVERS & SHAKERS TO OFFER
PAY EQUITY PROGRAM DURING NEVADA LIBRARY CONFERENCE
Henderson, NV—The Nevada Library Association’s (NLA) 58th
Annual Conference, being held August 11 – 14, 2004 at the Hyatt
Regency Lake Las Vegas Resort, is hosting two of Library Journal’s
Movers & Shakers, Mary George, head of Children’s Services
of the Placer County (California) Library, and Christopher Christman,
Placer County Law Librarian, who will present “Fighting for Fair
Pay: A Practical Approach” on Thursday, August 12.
Dani Porter, Development Director of the UNLV Libraries and fellow
2003 Mover & Shaker, is pleased to welcome two top library salary advocates
to Nevada: “Mary and Christopher will illustrate how fair pay
for all library workers can be achieved through research, collaboration
and
persistence.”
While the association of George and Christman made for a winning team
in their California county’s library pay battle, Christman, who holds a law degree
from the McGeorge School of Law at the University of the Pacific, will share
relevant research from Nevada’s books.
