 What is a Human Library book?

 A book with us is a person that volunteered to represent a stigmatised group in the community and based on their personal experiences can answer questions from readers to help challenge what is being said/told/understood about a given topic.

 You have the opportunity to speak informally with “people on loan” (Books), these "books" varied in age, sex and cultural background, you can borrow a “book” for 20 minutes, to reduce prejudices and encourage understanding and build bridges among our diverse community.
