The Human Library® is a place where real people are on loan to readers and where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered. It encourages patrons to become Readers, by metaphorically “checking out” a Human Book for a 30-minute loan – formulating a conversation where patrons can ask questions they normally would not feel comfortable posing, and where Human Books can respond with their unique experiences.

Human Books are people who discuss their stories of how they have overcome obstacles with stigma, stereotypes, and assumptions by others.

Readers, like you, challenge your own bias and prejudices through respectful conversation with others.  Stop by The Human Library® and unjudge someone.
