Eisenhower Library Releases New Records on Ike’s Farewell Speech

Recently discovered memos, letters, and drafts documenting the evolution and writing of the most famous presidential farewell address in modern American history are now open to researchers at the Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum.

Advisory Committee on Presidential Library-Foundations (correction)

Contrary to a previous article on the Advisory Committee on Presidential Library-Foundations, the Archivist of the United States David Ferriero has not made any personnel announcements in conjunction with the on-going National Archives reorganization. It was mistakenly reported here that Sharon Fawcett, the current director of NARA’s Presidential Library system, had been named to head a new Department of Library and Museum Services. That is not the case and we apologize for posting this incorrect information.
