The Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library, one of 13 Presidential Libraries administered by the National Archives and Records Administration, holds more than 45 million pages, an extensive audiovisual collection, and 2,000 oral history interviews related to Johnson’s presidency. At the library’s opening, President Johnson said, “This library will show the facts, not just the joy and triumphs, but the sorrows and failures, too.” Located on the UT Campus in a Gordon Bunshaft designed building, the LBJ Library completed a year-long, $11 million, renovation in December 2012, including a brand new, 3-floor exhibit (and now charges admission).
