The Human Library

An event for conversations that challenge stereotypes.

November 20, 2024

SBU Libraries and partners hosted the University's second Human Library event on November 19th, 2024. Spread out over five hours, the event introduced attendees to a host of Human Books who sat down and discussed the lives they've lived and the stereotypes or prejudices they've overcome.

We thank all those who participated and want to shout out our great partners on campus: the Division of Student Affairs, Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Intercultural Initiative (DI3), Office of Military and Veteran Student Services, and Diversity, Intercultural, and Community Engagement (DICE), and the Program in Public Health.
