Freedom of Speech in the Workplace
Presented by Rich Wooster (attorney for Pierce County Library System)
Thursday, April 17, 4:15-5:30pm
Hilton Hotel, Spruce Room
Mr. Wooster addresses the seldom clear and frequently confusing issue of First Amendment rights in the workplace. As the American workplace becomes more diverse, the question arises, where does freedom of expression begin and end on the job? What are the implications for library workers, whose jobs exist to promote the free flow of beliefs and thought?Join us for some thought provoking discussion.
