We visited the American Corner the other day, a room within the library in the Lyceum. The resources in this room are furnished by the U.S. Embassy, a part of a program that is in many countries. I remember that in 2004 when I was here before, Eger had applied for this program but it was not yet granted.
Both Jack and I will give talks about American culture topics for the public in this setting at some point while we are here, but the subjects and dates have not yet been set. There are a lot of good resources there, and Gabor Jakubik, the man in charge, is kind and knowledgeable. It's a source of English language books--important for readaholics like us when we finish what we've brought. We'll look for a good place to donate the books we have, and will enjoy reading what's in this area. However, it's at least my goal to be able to read 'kiddy books' in Hungarian by April! Any recommendations?
