I wanted to pass on the good news about the Harper Collins Union strike action.
After reaching a tentative agreement, the union has voted to ratify the contract and they're going back to work on Feb 21.

Congratulations to #HCPUnion on a milestone reached!

It’s not over yet. Members have to approve the deal. Their voice, their power — that’s what this is about.

Reminder that just last week, PW reported on a series of management and exec promotions at HarperCollins.

But I'll bet most, if not all, of those workers who will be laid off will be union workers.

Harper isn't going into union negotiations in good faith.

There better be a massive turnout at this week's rallies (1pm EST today at the Harper offices, and 1pm EST on Thursday at News Corp's office).

@bookstodon This article collects little painted portraits of the HarperCollins Union picket line, and it's a lovely look at what's been going on there.

"Strikers plan two rallies next week to amplify the support they have been receiving from authors, agents, booksellers, politicians, and the labor movement at large: Tue, Jan 31, rally at 1PM will be held outside #HarperCollins offices in FiDi of Manhattan; and Thur, Feb 2, rally also at 1PM will be held outside News Corp offices in Midtown."
