The Human Library ® is a library of people and their experiences facing prejudice. Instead of physical books, actual people are on loan for conversations. Our program with The Human Library ® aims to create a safe space for conversation where topics subject to taboo, marginalization, or stigmatization can be openly addressed without condemnation. The people acting as Books have directly or indirectly been exposed to prejudice, bias, or discrimination based on aspects of their race, religion, sexual orientation, class, gender identity, or disability. Readings are 30 minutes. Readers must be 16 or older. Drop in throughout the program to see what Books are available to check out, or attend the entire program and read multiple books. Readers can check in at the Book Depot outside the Meeting Room to see what Books are available and to learn more bout the Human Library organization.
