Human Library at High Wycombe Library in Buckinghamshire

As in 2009, this local Human Library organizer is offering readers the chance to challenge their stereotypes at a two day Human Library event presented at High Wycombe Library in Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom. Patrons of High Wycombe know the location as a neutral, welcoming, friendly and open place for dialogue and information.

This local organizer views the Human Library as a way to extend their traditional remit and at the same time offering new opportunities to local residents. Last event in November 2009, attracted 104 readers. This time the organizers expect over 200. More than 25 different Living Books are expected to be on loan to readers, at the two-day event.

The Human Library at High Wycombe Library is supported by Wycombe District Council´s community cohesion fund.
