The Michigan State Senate approved
its first bill of the legislative session
yesterday granting the Michigan Em-
ployment Relations Commission
(MERC) jurisdiction to conduct a union
representation election for state police
troopers.
The measure, passed by .a 25-9
margin,, was vetoed last year by

Governor William Milliken. The bill is
the legislative implementation of the
new collective bargaining rights gran-
ted state troopers with the passage of
Proposal G last November..
Proposition G is a constitutional
amendment giving state troopers the
same bargaining rights as local police.
The troopers add that the statute
removes them from civil service
jurisdiction, with the exception of
promotions.I
Milliken, however, claims that the
legislature has no authority under the

In the near future, anyone wishing to
read a rare book from a University
library will be forced to read a
microfilm substitute instead.
University libraries have begun using
microfilm copies of rare or fragile
works in order to offset the collections'
deterioration, said Jim Craven,
University book conservator. These
books are published on a more acidic
variety. of paper and deteriorate

regulating any terms of civil service
employment, including those of state
police troopers.
The governor says the state Civil
Service Department should handle the
union representation election, as well
as any grievance proceedings or other
union business.
MIlliken is expected to veto the
Senate bill again. Should this be the
case, the full exercise of the state
troopers' newly-won bargaining rights
will be delayed indefinitely.

books fall apart after only 25 years of
use, Craven said.
"WE ARE waiting for some kind of
technical advance that will allow us to
de-acidify a great quantity of books,"
Craven said. "Until it comes along,
there are some things you can do with
storage such as temperature and
humidity control."
Preserving' processes have been
developed, but sipposedly they are too
expensive, library officials said.
"These processes are prohibitive
when you become involved with tle
number of books such as we have at the
University," Craven said.
ONE OF the major causes of book
deterioration is exposure to humidity,
dust and air pollution. To combat these
forces, University library personnel
are tryinlg to create favorable and con-
sistent environments.
"Some divisional libraries need new
buildings," said library official Robprt
Starring. "Some old buildings don't
have air handling systems and the
collection suffers more when you have
fluctuation in temperlature."
"We're fortunate that Ann Arbor is
not highly industrialized," he added.
"We don't have the problems (with
pollution) that some urban research
libraries have."
HOWEVER, according to Craven, a
Major threat to books are people.
Despite environmental threats to
books published on acidic paper, the
publishing industry has yet to adapt
more durable, acid-free paper, Starring
-said. "Commercial publishers are still
not persuaded to go to acid-free papet"
he said. ."t would lie a. great boon, but
they (the publishers) sayit would hav
to be cost effective.'

We know because
