Everyone has a story…You’re invited to come along and read a book with a difference! Our books in the Living Library are people with a story to tell.
What is a Living Library?The Living Library offers borrowers an opportunity to understand the lives of people in their community better—such as those who have faced hardship or prejudice, but also people from diverse life experiences & backgrounds. It is just like a regular library with one difference: in the Living Library people are the ‘books’.
