<p class="x_MsoNormal">Our library is looking to make some updates to our pay scale. Some questions came up at the last board meeting, and we were wondering what other libraries are doing. Our current pay scale is not initiative based, meaning you get a pay
increase at a scheduled time without any kind of evaluation of your work. I’m wondering do other libraries follow a set scale and are your increases dependent on performance as well as employment time. We are wanting to make this transition as smoothly as
possible. Thank you for any help you can give me!<u></u><u></u></p>
