Talk:Presidential library

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There have been news stories of late mentioning that Clinton's presidential library is now open, after a rain drenched opening cerimony. Anybody out there have any information helpful to update this article? -- Des Courtney

This seems inconsistent: "The Presidential library system is made up of ten Presidential libraries (see list of U.S. Presidential libraries). Also included in the Presidential library system is the Nixon Presidential Materials Staff, which administers the Nixon Presidential materials under the terms of the Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act, and the William J. Clinton Presidential Materials Project, which administers the Clinton Presidential materials. The William Jefferson Clinton Presidential Library became the eleventh Presidential library on November 18, 2004. The Richard Nixon Library & Birthplace is not officially part of the Presidential library system."

Is it 10 or 11?

[edit] Jefferson Davis

In my view, the Jefferson Davis Presidential Library does not belong as part of this specific article.

That it this article is properly included in Wikipedia remains beyond question, but any Jefferson Davis' "library" is simply not appropriate for incorporation as a link within this network of federally-funded depositories. If this becomes a matter for further discussion, I would have thought that this page would be a convenient venue for resolving any outstanding questions?. --Tenmei (talk) 20:43, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
