The Human Library is a safe place where you can speak one-on-one with someone you might otherwise never have the chance to meet. Our volunteers have unique life experiences, stories, or beliefs, and have agreed to become living "books" you can "check out" for 15 minutes at a time. Listen, ask questions, and learn about the members of your community. See people as stories, not stereotypes.
