The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library
AbstractThe Ronald Reagan Library, located on a rugged hilltop in southern California, is the newest facility in the National Archives's system of presidential libraries. Five American presidents gathered at the library for its dedication on November 4, 1991. The library's collections of textual, audiovisual, and museum objects are the largest holdings of any presidential library. Under provisions of the Presidential Records Act (1978), the library has made available for research over 7 million pages of its 47 million pages of records. The main museum exhibits depict the life and presidency of Ronald Reagan, with an emphasis on photographs, gift items, and multimedia presentations. Exhibit highlights are a full-scale replica of the Oval Office and a section of the Berlin Wall. Events at the library have included visits by Mikhail Gorbachev and Margaret Thatcher. The first two years of operation have provided the Reagan Library with a solid foundation for future expansion of collections management, exhibits, and programs.
