American Corners are small, American-style libraries that are funded by the U.S. Department of State. These libraries help increase mutual understanding between Armenia and the United States by providing information about America in various electronic and print sources. Each American Corner features a diverse collection of English language books, reference materials about the United States, computers with Internet and access to online databases, CDs, and videos.
Through this program, the U.S. embassy provided the American Corner in Gyumri with three computers, approximately 300 books, and a wide variety of electronic and print resources. The American Corner in Gyumri is open to the general public, free of charge, Monday through Friday from 09:00 to 17:00. In addition to a being full multi-media reference resource, the American Corner will host regular programming, including lectures, workshops, and video series.
The U.S. Embassy opened its first American Corner in April of this year at the Yerevan City Isahakian Central Library. The U.S. Embassy plans to create a network of American Corners throughout Armenia in the coming years.
If I may state my opinion on this I think Americans are trying to pollute our culture, what they do they don't do to help us. All I can say is that im totally against a goverment helping us when they do not even recognize the genocide... please tell me what you think on this issue and if you dont think its an issue please let me know what you think.
n.b. is the cold war ever going to end ?
