The American Corner Daegu is a resource center located on the first floor of the Daegu Metropolitan Jungang Library that will provide the people of Daegu with open, factual, and accurate information about the United States, its people, culture, history, government, and institutions. Students seeking to conduct research on the United States and members of the general public desiring to improve their English language skills through free access to a comprehensive collection of English language print and electronic materials will benefit from the American Corner¡¯s presence at the Daegu Metropolitan Jungang Library. Since 2000, the U.S. Department of State has funded the development of over 100 American Corners in over 28 countries worldwide, including Korea¡¯s first American Corner at the Busan Metropolitan Simin Municipal Library, which opened in February 2004. The American Corner at the Daegu Metropolitan Jungang Library will supplement the library¡¯s existing print and multimedia collection while enhancing the variety of educational programs already offered by the library by providing additional educational programming in English on a regular basis.
