A Human Library is a gathering of living “Books” (people) who are eager to share their stories in a welcoming and safe space to foster engaging dialogue and personal connections with interested “Readers.” Human Libraries typically feature Books who belong to groups in society who have been exposed to stigma, stereotyping, or prejudices. From their past experiences, Books provide Readers with insight, personal experience, and perspective around situations Readers might not otherwise learn about. Join us in this unconventional library experience as we aim to dissolve barriers, amplify diverse voices, and confront preconceptions. Let’s collectively embrace the Human Library’s motto: “Unjudge someone!”

Book titles will be announced at the event and sign up will be all day starting at 9:30 a.m. Normal library service will continue during the day.
