1. Attendees will be presented with a list of available “Human Books.” Each title represents a Youth Exchange Student.
2. Once a student is chosen, you can pick topics to discuss.
3. The session will last 5 -7 minutes to allow multiple visitors the opportunity to interact with different “books.”
4. The visitor and the Human Book engage in a personal conversation. This interaction is the heart of the Human Library experience.
5. After the Session, the reader “returns” the book. They may then choose to check out another book.<\/p>\n
This allows all of us to be able to support more people and organizations in D. 5960 and around the world!
We enjoy living out the 4 Way Test through this partnership. Come to our table and learn more about what we are doing and consider what other areas might work well with this model.<\/p>\n
Over 270 desks with chairs, bookcases, misc furniture, and books were specially packaged to fit securely in a 40 container. The container was loaded on October 4th in Owatonna for the journey to Tanzania. Various shipping and administrative delays finally got the container to Tanzania and the final destination where it was unloaded and placed in the schools. This is equipment that more than likely would have ended up in a landfill in southern Minnesota.<\/p>\n
