About the blog

The HEARO human library is in the true sense of the word, a library of people with a deaf or hard of hearing identity. They come from all walks of life with one thing in common: They are the heroes of their own stories. Reading each one is like opening a good book to study, learn from, and be inspired by. Every story reveals how unique and special the deaf and hard of hearing identity is and more importantly, what it means to be human.
