Accordingly, the concept of human library can be introduced as one of the most important concepts that has entered the field of library recently.

The main objective of this research was to study the importance of applying the concept of human library to the library system of Sri Lanka through the Colombo University Library, Sri Jayewardenepura University Library, Athurugiriya Public Library and the National Library. Most readers prefer to communicate with a live person instead of reading books Foreign countries are reaping many benefits from the use of the human library concept. In order to put such programs into practice in the library, it is very important to introduce this concept to other libraries, to explain its benefits and to spread this concept within the Sri Lankan library system. en_US
