The legal environment surrounding the unionization of library personnel
must be discussed from several different standpoints. At the outset, one must
differentiate among library personnel on the basis of whom they work for.
library personnel working for private universities come under the National
Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Library personnel working for public employers
in some states come under the jurisdiction of a state public employee labor
relations act, while such personnel in other states have no statutory protection
and must rely on judge-made law which varies from state to state.
