QuickCheck: Is there a 'library' in Denmark where you can borrow people?


THERE are thousands of libraries around the globe, which house plenty of useful and informative resources, where visitors can read or borrow.

Many of these reading spaces have been drawing the attention of both book enthusiasts and architecture lovers, thanks to unique design.

Is there a library in Denmark that lets visitors loan a person instead?

Verdict:

TRUE

Yes, the Human Library at Copenhagen has a special (and bizarre) function of allowing readers to "borrow" a human being.

In the brief duration of 30 minutes, you can listen to the person’s stories and have open conversations with them.

The idea behind the initiative, started in 2000 by The Human Library Organisation, is to help people widen their perspective and "unjudge others."

With a mission to fight the ever-growing stigma, the platform is available in various countries today, providing a safe outlet for people to share their life experiences.
