From WOIO:
Cleveland Public Library workers avoided a strike Monday after reaching a last minute “tentative agreement.”
Workers were scheduled to walk off the job at noon Monday.
They will now take a ratification vote on Aug. 26. If the workers fail to approve the tentative agreement, the strike will happen on Aug. 27.
No details on the tentative agreement have been released at this time.
