A group for librarians interested in the Living Library Project. Learn from other members who have successfully planned and implemented a Living Library event at their library. The Living Library is a unique event that brings together people who have special interests, beliefs or experiences to speak with people from different backgrounds and share their personal story. In this innovative program participants can "check out" Living Books for a personal conversation.
