US Consul General Lahore Kristin Hawkins signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a new Lincoln Corner to be established at the Quaid-e-Azam Library (QAL), here on Friday. Director General (DG) Punjab Public Libraries Kashif Manzoor signed the MoU for the QAL. The QAL is a research and reference library which was established in 1984. The library caters to the need of a large number of students from all parts of the country while the place is thronged by the large number of competitive examination aspirants. The QAL is also famous for its 19th century neoclassical architecture and houses Lawrence and Montgomery halls. The building is witness to multiple epoch-making events in history. Consul General Kristin Hawkins visited different parts of the library and admired its historicity. She also interacted with the Chief Librarian and researchers there. In her address during the MoU signing at the Lawrence Hall, she said it gives her immense pleasure to lay foundation of the second Lincoln Corner at the QAL in heart of the city of Lahore after the Information Technology University (ITU). She said these corners are the welcoming spaces for open dialogues, bringing together diverse people for important conversations, adding that our Lincoln Corners bring together communities and inspire future leaders.
