The UCA Library invites you to attend our Bear Biographies Event (formerly The Human Library) at the UCA Torreyson Library (2nd floor) on Tuesday, April 8th, 2025 from 12 pm – 4 pm. The event is free and open to the public.
Bear Biographies is designed to build a positive framework for conversations that can challenge stereotypes and prejudices through dialogue. It is a place where real people are on loan to readers– a place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated, and answered. Save the date to attend, or visit our Bear Biographies Guide for more information.
Our event, based on The Human Library, a worldwide project that originated in Copenhagen in 2000, is designed to build a positive framework for conversations that can challenge stereotypes and prejudices through dialogue. People volunteering as “human books” will be available for individual, 20-minute conversations with participants interested in learning more about their stories.
Please join us and feel free to bring a friend!
