People as Books

On April 21 in the regional library named after S. Toraigyrov an open meeting "Living library" took place at one of the sites organized by the book festival "Okytyn Pavlodar" to the World Book and Copyright Day.

"The living library" reminded the usual: each reader came, looked through the catalog, chose an interesting book and read it. Only here the role of books was played by real people, and the conversation replaced the process of reading.

Three speakers, three destinies, three books were located on three platforms of the huge hall: candidate of medical sciences, psychotherapist, psychiatrist Sergey Molchanov, police major Ruslan Otarbayev and the head of the public fund "Asyl Ana KZ" Aytim Kusainov.

"Living books" and the gathered active youth of the city touched upon the most important and interesting topics, about which in our society they do not speak enough.
