PLC Sydney Librarian Cathryn Williams never expects to win prizes, so when she won the IEU’s competition for a Bose Bluetooth Sound System she was thrilled.
“If you don’t expect to win than it’s really exciting when you do,” she said.
Cathryn has worked as a library technician and librarian at PLC for 23 years and been a member of the IEU all that time.
All she had to do to go in the draw to win her prize was update her details with the IEU’s membership team.
“I worked in public libraries before I transferred to schools and I was a union member than,” she said.
“I’ve always believed that unions do a good job for their members.
“It’s been good knowing I had someone to support me throughout my career if anything went wrong.”
Cathryn has opted to take a gift voucher to get a camera as a prize rather than the sound system.
The prize is perfect timing for Cathryn, as she is on long service leave and about to undertake a long tour of the US with friends.
“We’re starting from New York and making our way to LA. I’ll be able to think about the IEU every time I get the camera out to take a picture.”
