What is Living Library?
Living Library is an international movement promoting human rights and social dialogue. It has been present in Poland since 2007! It works like a normal library, except for the fact that here the Reader borrows Living Books 鈥� People. These are people representing groups that are exposed to discrimination due to stereotypes and prejudices, who "do not fit" into rigid social frameworks. The Living Library is based on respect and the spirit of tolerance.
How can you take part in the event?
You can attend the "Living Library" as a Reader by coming to the event. All you need to do is register on site, i.e. get a library card.

You can ask any question 鈥� of course, respecting the rules of propriety and respecting other person.
