Welcome the world at CBC Sudbury's Living Library
On October 14, meet 10 people from around the world who have made Sudbury their home
Think about the process you go through to check out a book at the library. Now imagine that instead of borrowing a book, you're borrowing a person.
On Saturday, Oct. 14, CBC Sudbury is partnering up with the Greater Sudbury Public Library to host a Living Library at the south end location.
The theme of the event is "Sudbury Welcomes the World," and it will feature ten guests, each with a unique story about how they came to Sudbury from away.
You can stop by the south end library starting at 10:30 a.m., to register and book a one-on-one chat with one of our guests. For 20 minutes, you'll have the opportunity to talk to them about their life and experiences. Time slots will be available between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
Meet our "books"
Everyday for the next two weeks, we'll introduce you to one of our guests on our morning radio show, Morning North. Each guest is someone who has come from away, but has decided to make Sudbury their home:
- Pradyumna Regmi - Nepal
- Mohamed Al Zahran - Syria
- Gurpreet Singh Broca - India
- Chiebere Ogbuneke - Nigeria
- Gustavo Arteca - Argentina
- Nam Le - Vietnam
- May Collison - England
- Paula Wharton - Guyana

Be sure to check our website every day to see pictures from each guest, and read more about their stories.
