Today Albert S. Cook Library and the Center for Student Diversity invite you to participate in the Human Library from 12pm–4pm at the University Union in rooms 314–316.
“Human Books” challenge stereotypes through respectful conversation with others. During the Human Library, volunteers from our campus community act as books. Titles of all Human Library books relate to one or more aspects of the volunteer’s identity; usually, an identity that has faced bias or discrimination. Human Books are checked out by patrons for a short conversation.
During these 15-30 minute conversations, we hope to challenge societal prejudices and bring a better understanding of community to everyone involved.
This program is sponsored by Albert S. Cook Library and the Center for Student Diversity. For questions, email diversityworks@towson.edu.
Co-sponsored by the Department of English, Center for Student Diversity, The College of Liberal Arts, the International Student and Scholar Office and Alpha Sigma Rho Sorority
