Human Library Event

Beauchamp Branch Library will host a A Human Library from 1 to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, April 16. The event is a way for people to reach out and connect with individuals in their community with whom they might not normally interact. Visitors to the library have an opportunity during the event to borrow and engage in conversation with a Human Book, a person that has volunteered to tell their story. Readers have the opportunity to participate in one-on-one or small group conversations with Human Books to ask questions and to learn about another’s experiences. Readers check out Human Books for 30 minutes. Books can be checked out at the event or in advance at the front desk. The event is free and open to all. Call the library for a list of available books and to register at (315) 435-3395.
