Lincoln Corner Peshawar is a partnership program between the University of Peshawar and the U.S. Mission in Pakistan. The Lincoln Corner offers a wealth of information about the United States and includes a reference library, information center, and meeting place for people interested in American history, society, and culture. Located in the central library of University of Peshawar, Pakistan's flagship Lincoln Corner was opened to the public in February 2006. The Corner was formally inaugurated by Ambassador Ryan Crocker and the then Governor Khalilur Rehman in May 2006. Lincoln Corner Peshawar promotes friendship between the United States and Pakistan through multimedia resources, English language materials, information about studying in the U.S., cultural activities, and lectures on topics of interest to the people of Peshawar. Books, magazines, access to computers, internet, web cam and DVDs offer a "window on America" and its people - history, society, geography, government, and popular culture.
