On May 18, 2006, U.S. Ambassador John Evans participated in the
official opening of the Library Science Computer Laboratory at the
Yerevan State Pedagogical University. The creation of the computer
lab was made possible by the donation of six computers and the
installation of library automation software by the U.S. Embassy in
Armenia. The Pedagogical University provided the newly refurbished
room for the laboratory.

Since 2000, the Information Resource Center of the U.S. Embassy
has cooperated with the School of Library Science at Yerevan State
Pedagogical University. This has included bringing in American speakers
every year to lecture on modern developments in library science, as
well as an expert in 2005 to help design a new, up-to-date library
science curriculum. The Information Resource Center and staff are an
open resource for all students and researchers who want to learn more
about the U.S. and about developments there.
