The Presidential Libraries Act after 50 years

The origins of the important Presidential Libraries Act of 1955, which were official repositories designed especially to preserve and make accessible the records of President, are traced. These libraries, all built with nonfederal funds, are operated and maintained by the National Archives and Records Administration and also draw support from affiliated foundations or institutes that help underwrite research grants, outreach program, exhibits and other program and facility enhancements.
