Presidential Library

A Presidential Library is a specialized archive that preserves and makes accessible the personal papers, documents, records, and artifacts of a U.S. president. It serves as a resource for researchers, historians, and the public to study the president’s leadership, policies, and historical impact. Managed by the National Archives and Records Administration, each library also functions as a museum, highlighting the president’s legacy through exhibits and programs. These libraries help maintain the historical record and promote understanding of the presidential era they represent.
