AbstractThe Jimmy Carter Library is the most recently opened of the eight Presidential Libraries operated by the National Archives and Records Administration throughout the United States. This article reviews the past approaches to Presidential papers, the development of the system of Presidential Libraries, and the development of the Jimmy Carter Library. The explosion of paper in the Office of the President (F.D.R.'s twelve years produced nearly six million pages, while Jimmy Carter's four years produced more than twentysix million) requires new approaches to dealing with the information. The National Archives' approach to computerization are detailed, and the PresNet computerized finding aids are described.
