Consul for Public Affairs Mark Wenig explained to a group of 40 business majors at Freiberg’s Technical University the U.S. system of higher education, while the staff of consulate's Information Resource Center (IRC) introduced U.S. information resources and services, and Embassy educational advising. Professor Michael Hinner, head of the business English and intercultural communication’s department, had invited Consular staff. During the visit, the IRC Director met with the head of the Freiberg public library to discuss consulate services and joint programs. The Freiberg libraries received books from the former U.S. military base library in Fulda, a collection that is still in use.
