Happy 29th Anniversary American Corner Batac

On March 1951, the United States Information Service (USIS) the former name of the Thomas Jefferson Information Center established regional USIS libraries at Northern Luzon area particularly in Laoag and Tuguegarao to promote books and reading materials about the United States with a total collection of 8,653 materials and eventually after two years of operation, both USIS were ceased.

On January 14, 1985, the United States Information Service reopened one of its American Corner at Mariano Marcos State University, Batac, Ilocos region.

Thank you Mariano Marcos State University for your continued support  in promoting open access library and information exchange between the Philippines and the United States and more years of continued partnership and friendship.

Happy 29th Anniversary American Corner Batac.
