As repositories of valuable historical documents and other records, U.S. presidential libraries have long been important destinations for scholars. The first library was established by Franklin D. Roosevelt and opened to the public in 1941. (President Hoover, liking what he saw of F.D.R.’s project, established his own retroactively, in 1962.) Fifteen libraries are managed by the Office of Presidential Libraries, a part of the National Archives and Records Administration — the Presidential Libraries Act, passed in 1955, established the system of privately built and federally maintained institutions — and 13 are currently open to visitors. “They give us the opportunity to learn about American democracy, and how the government functions.”With Presidents’ Day fast approaching, consider planning a visit to a presidential library.

During a formal swearing-in ceremony, Biden noted that the nation's historic documents were once held by George Washington and later by the State Department, before being entrusted to the National Archives, founded by Congress in 1934. Political Cartoons View All 1152 ImagesThe National Archives, meanwhile, has been thrust into the national political spotlight in unusual ways lately. “This experiment in democracy hinged on the people, and their ability to claim their rights and hold their elected officials accountable," Jill Biden said Monday. “That's what makes the National Archives so important. Without the National Archives, and the continued fulfillment of its mission, a healthy democracy cannot be sustained.”
