About American Corner in Sulaymaniyah
The American Corner's Program is a United States Department of State-sponsored initiative inaugurated worldwide more than 17 years ago. Since 2004, the U.S. has launched almost 700 American Corners in approximately 70 countries.
The American Corner program has come to the Library of the University of Sulaymaniyah (UOS). The objective of this program is to establish affiliations between Iraqi and U.S. institutions and individuals that promote and facilitate linkages and relationships across a range of fields.
The American Corner at UOS Library exemplifies that by providing a platform for educational programs and access to American print, multimedia, and other materials. It will run speaker and discussion group programs, film presentations, online engagements, and other activities.
In addition to serving as a general resource center, the Corner serves as a space for cultural programming, supporting English-language teaching/learning, advising about educational opportunities in the United States, and activities that inform and engage Iraqi alumni of U.S. government exchange programs.
