About this user

The Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum is Americas first presidential library-and the only one used by a sitting president. It was conceived and built under President Roosevelt's direction and opened to the public in 1941. The library resulted from the President's decision that a separate facility was needed to house the vast quantity of historical papers, books, and memorabilia he had accumulated during a lifetime of public service and private collecting.

Today the mission of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum is to foster research and education on the life and times of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, the Great Depression and World War II, and their continuing impact on contemporary life. Our work is carried out by four major areas: Archives, Museum, Education and Public Programs.
