The University and the AFT enter into the following sideletter regarding the utilization of Hourly
Intermittent Librarians. The following terms and conditions of employment shall govern the use
of such appointees at all locations except UC Santa Cruz and Riverside where the parties agree
the University may continue its current practices regarding the use of substitute librarians.
However, at the request of the union, the parties will meet to review the use of hourly librarians
at the Santa Cruz and/or Riverside campus.
