Mission

The mission of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Library/Information Resource Center, and the Business Information Center is to provide accurate and timely information about the United States, its policies, practices and society to officials of governmental and non-governmental agencies, researchers, academics, business people and all others who need or want such information. The two Information Resource Centers have joined forces to promote development, business growth and trade with Zambia.

The American Center was established in Lusaka to provide a place for exchange of information and ideas and to strengthen Zambian-American cultural and social ties.
