• Window On America
  
  Adding to the success of the American Corner project, in 2005, PA Seoul began establishing "Window on America" bookshelves, housing books and stocks of USG free publications in English and Korean in high visibility areas throughout Korea.
  
  As with the American Corners, the Window on America is a partnership between PA Seoul and the hosting institution.  The hosting institution is responsible for providing an ideal place for the publications and for maintaining the shelves, while PA Seoul is responsible for providing the materials.  As a small, mobile counterpart to the American Corner, the purpose of the "Window on America" bookshelf is to provide access for tens of thousands of Koreans outside the major population centers of the country to information about the United States that is accurate and authoritative, while promoting the society and culture of the United States to Korean audiences.
