CPSU Members at Dandenong have raised concerns about ATO’s decision to close the staff library, without consideration of how it might affect you. The decision has been made to retain Box Hill, Casseldon Place and Moonee Ponds libraries.
Issues raised so far include:
The lack of staff consultation and the opportunity to respond
Technical resources/materials lost in “eLibrary” translation
Delays in delivery of requested books and its impact on completing cases
and providing advice
Loss of assistance, with an onsite Librarian when conducting research
Large increase in travel to undertake necessary research
How do you feel about the library closures?
Will career opportunities in Dandenong be diminished as higher level
technical jobs move to sites where the libraries are?
Will the opportunity for professional development be significantly
reduced?
Do you think management closing your library will affect your ability to
research and complete work?
We need to find out how this will affect you and your ability to perform your
job. To find out more, you are invited to a lunch time meeting. Bring your lunch
along and have your say.
Meeting details
Date: Monday 25 August Time: 12.30pm till 1.30pm Location: Room 8.1 and 8.2 on the 8th floor, Dandenong ATO.
