Since 2001, the AGBU Young Professionals (YP) Network has lent its financial support to the American University of Armenia (AUA) in Yerevan by sponsoring its annual subscription to the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Digital Library. More than a decade later, the giving continues with support provided this year by YP Boston, YP Greater New York, YP Lebanon, YP Los Angeles, YP Orange County, and HAIK, a YP Partner organization in Frankfurt, Germany. In total, AGBU YP Groups and Partners have donated nearly $25,000 to this endeavor over the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important for the AGBU Young Professionals to support AUA graduate students in their efforts to pursue their studies,\u201d says YP Orange County Chairwoman Dora Gulesserian, whose group donated for the first time this year. \u201cThe ACM Digital Library is an invaluable resource in providing knowledge about the computing industry and we are happy to be able to direct funds to this important cause.\u201d<\/p>\n

Advancing the educational and research efforts of AUA graduate students and faculty, the ACM Digital Library is the ultimate resource to the computing industry, providing a vast collection of citations and full texts from current and archival journals, articles, and conference proceedings, both in print and online.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can attest to the importance of our students having access to inspirational information in their field of expertise,\u201d shares Aram Hajian, Dean of the AUA College of Engineering. \u201cThe AGBU YP donation has helped enable our students to be aware of the most up-to-date scientific scholarship in computer science through the ACM subscription. I am happy to express my thanks and appreciation to the AGBU Young Professionals on behalf of the AUA College of Engineering. We highly value such examples of Diasporan support for Armenia\u2019s institutional development and for AUA in particular.\u201d<\/p>\n

ACM is the world\u2019s largest educational and scientific computing society, uniting educators, researchers, students, and professionals to inspire dialogue, share resources, and address the field\u2019s challenges. Access to the latest publications via the ACM Digital Library is essential for AUA graduate students and faculty to further their scholarship and stay abreast of the changing trends in computing and information technologies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to have the committed support of the global network of the AGBU Young Professionals,\u201d remarked Dr. Bruce Boghosian, President of AUA. \u201cThe AGBU YP sponsorship of the ACM has been steadfast over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n
