Living Library

In a Living Library, you can borrow a person instead of a book! Community members volunteer to be ‘Books’ and prepare their stories, before sharing them in a one-to-one conversation with ‘Borrowers’. It’s a little like speed-dating, enabling connection in a non-judgmental environment, often between people with vastly different life stories and experiences.
