Living Libraries at the Library!
For the upcoming Truth and Reconciliation Commission Engagement Week, Library and Academic Services and Career Services are holding two Living Library events. Living Libraries are experiences that allow people to listen and learn from a person in real time, mimicking the setup of libraires and physical books.
Participants will hear from Indigenous storytellers what the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action mean to them and how they incorporate Indigenous teachings and principles into the workplace. The Living Library format is interactive by nature, involving small-group discussions between a storyteller and participants in a safe and supportive environment. Groups of 5-6 participants will spend 15 minutes with a speaker, rotating through different storytellers.
