Human Library Day at the Ottawa Public Library

By on January 18th, 2012

Saturday, January 28, 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m at various libraries throughout Ottawa

The concept

  • An individual accepts to take part in the event as a Book
  • Book reservations for specific time slots will be available the day of the event, at each site
  • Books get “checked out” for 20 minutes by a Reader
  • Talk to the person one-on-one about their diverse experiences.

Participants that can be “checked out” range from OC Transpo drivers and CBC journalists, to spiritual advisors and sex workers.  There will also be a special set of participants at the War Museum also participating in the event.  Details can on the Human Library Day can be found here.
