A "Human Library questions" PDF would typically include
a set of interview questions designed to engage potential
"Human Books" (individuals sharing personal experiences)
for a Human Library event, focusing on topics like
their lived experiences, challenges faced, perspectives on
their "title" (the label describing their story),
and their motivations for participating, all aimed at
facilitating open and respectful dialogue with "readers" (the people who "borrow" the books) during the event.
Sample Human Library Questions for Potential "Books":
General Information:
What is your "title" for the Human Library and why did you choose it?
Briefly describe the story you are willing to share as a "Human Book."
What are your hopes for the conversation with "readers" during your session?
About your Experience:
Can you share a significant event or experience that shaped your perspective on [topic related to your title]?
What are some common misconceptions about [topic related to your title] that you'd like to address?
How do you feel about discussing challenging or sensitive aspects of your experience?
Motivation for Participation:
Why did you decide to become a "Human Book" in the Human Library?
What do you hope to achieve by sharing your story with others?
What are your expectations for the interactions with "readers" during your session?
Preparation and Comfort:
Are there any boundaries you would like to set regarding questions or topics during the conversation?
How do you plan to handle potentially difficult questions or uncomfortable situations?
Do you have any support systems in place if needed during or after your session?
Important Considerations:
Focus on Empathy and Respect:
Ensure questions are designed to encourage understanding and respectful dialogue, avoiding judgmental or intrusive inquiries.
Diverse Topics:
Cover a wide range of experiences and perspectives to reflect the diversity of the community.
Clear Guidelines:
Clearly communicate the purpose of the Human Library and the expectations for both "Books" and "Readers".
