Dear Dr. Smith:
During the course of negotiations certain issues related to librarians were raised by UUP that were of such significant concern that review at the Executive Level is required. As soon as practicable after a fully executed agreement, GOER, SUNY and UUP shall meet to discuss and review issues regarding librarians. Such discussion and review may include but are not limited to titles, obligation, protected time, and compensation. The agreement to review these issues in the labor-management forum does not constitute a waiver of any management or union right or prerogative.
Sincerely,
s/Gary Johnson, Director
Governor’s Office of Employee Relations
s/Phillip H. Smith, President
United University Professions
Appendix-48 Advisory Committee Charge
To make recommendations to the President of UUP on issues that include, but are not limited to, titles, obligation, protected time, and compensation concerns for discussion with state representatives from the Governor's Office of Employee Relations and SUNY. The advisory committee shall convene its first meeting no later than March 1, 2014. The UUP President will initiate a discussion with state officials at the Executive Level once the advisory committee has submitted its final recommendation and information/evidence to support its recommendations.
(Liaison’s Note: The negotiations will cover issues for both academics and professionals with M.LS. degrees or equivalent who work in libraries at UUP-represented bargaining units.)
