In Toronto Library contract negotiations "Key bargaining points were 'safety & security', 'harassment' & 'workplace violence.' … public libraries have been pressed into service as de facto homeless shelters & support service locations. They’ve become hotbeds of people in crisis.

I'm deeply grateful for the chance to provide a welcoming space, recognizing the dignity and unique circumstances of each guest.

I'll miss the guests, and I hope they receive the housing and services they deserve. With funding cuts, #community support is crucial. Please consider contributing; every bit helps.
