Pakistan Journal of Information Management & Libraries (PJIM&L), 19, 1-12. http://journals.pu.edu.pk/journals/index.php/pjiml/article/view/1012 ("This case study documents the human library program [in the Philippines] as an alternative source of information which promotes cultural diversity to improve many facets of literacies which include media and information literacy. Human library aims to lessen our prejudices and makes us more tolerant individuals. In order to achieve cultural equality and social inclusivity, DLSU Libraries continues to offer human library sessions to form critical thinkers, lifelong learners and catalysts for social transformation. Most readers thought that the most important learning experience they gained while reading the books was to accept and understand each one of us as unique individuals. The human library program encourages people to be more tolerant and embolden acceptance."
