MORE ABOUT THE HUMAN LIBRARY GLOBAL MOVEMENT 

Founded in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000, the HUMAN LIBRARY is now hosted globally. The model is that each person sharing their story is a book and, like in a library, the book can be checked out for a short time, generally 20 minutes, by our students, faculty, and staff, the readers . Each book has a specific title and will talk about their experience with that topic. The reader interacts with the book , asking questions to gain a deeper understanding. More information can be found on the HUMAN LIBRARY  organization website, http://humanlibrary.org
