Asker became a member of ICORN in 2018 after a unanimous vote by the Asker City Council.
The ICORN residency is facilitated by Asker Public Library, which provides office space for the resident writer, artist, or journalist.
In 2020, Asker welcomed its first ICORN resident, Kurdish Iranian journalist, translator, and writer Xebat Rasouli.
