How do I borrow a book?

On the day of the event, there will be 15-20 different human books with various "titles" available to be "borrowed" by visitors for a maximum of 30 minutes. Click herefor a list of Human Books. (Cliquez ici pour une liste de livres vivants qui parlent français). There will be conversation guides available if you are not quite sure how to start your conversation.

If you're interested in borrowing a specific human book, you can ensure his/her availability by reserving in advance. Please contact us via e-mail (vanref@alcor.concordia.ca) or phone (514-848-2424 extension 7766). Once you’ve made your reservations, just come to the Vanier Library on September 17th and our volunteers will introduce you to your human book.
