The CU Living Library: Continuing Community through Dialogue event is an opportunity for people to engage with one another around stories in a supportive environment which encourages questions and open mindedness. “Books” -- people who are willing to share stories about their lives and diverse personal backgrounds -- and small groups of “Readers” will engage in brave, in-depth, authentic conversations across gender, race, nationality, religion, and ability. This event will allow students and campus community members to experience positive, authentic conversations, learning about themselves and others.
Organized by: Megan Welsh, Juleah Swanson, Lindsay Roberts, Gwendaynn Roebke.
The Living Library is supported by the University Libraries and funded in part through an Implementation of Multicultural Perspectives and Approaches in Research and Teaching (IMPART) award from the Office of Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement.

Share your story.
Living Books will share stories about their lives in order to challenge assumptions and to engage in respectful conversation with the members of the CU community, who borrow them. Dialoguing through difference.
