  • Presidential Libraries
    Presidential Libraries presented by Jeri Diehl Cusack Our National Archives For the first 150 or so years, each U. S. government agency kept its own records – sometimes without much special care or organization – until the establishment of the National Archives. The National Archives & the position of National Archivist were created by Congressional statute in 1934… during FDR’s first term in office. National Archives & Records Administration (or “NARA”) Best known for housing the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution & the Bill of Rights in its building on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., the National Archives is now “our nation’s official record keeper.” NARA includes a nationwide network of regional archives & records facilities. NARA has an Office of Presidential Libraries: http://www.archives.gov/presidential-libraries/ NARA Presidential Library Holdings 400 million pages 10 million photos 15 million feet of motion picture film 100,000 hours of audio/video tapes/discs 500,000+ museum objects History of Presidential Libraries In December of 1938, during his second term of office, FDR announced a plan to build a library to preserve his public papers. Some previous presidents had not taken such action; their papers had been lost, sold, scattered, damaged or even destroyed. FDR raised funds from private donors to fund building his project near his home in Hyde Park NY; later he donated the library to the U.S. Government via the National Archives.

  • Pets Are Popular with U.S. Presidents
    Pets Are Popular With U.S. Presidents Most people have heard by now that President-elect Barack Obama promised his two daughters a puppy if he were elected president. Obama called choosing a dog a “major issue” for the new first family. It seems that pets have always been very popular with U.S. presidents. Only two of the 44 presidents -- Chester A. Arthur and Franklin Pierce -- left no record of having pets. Many presidents and their children had dogs and cats in the White House. President and Mrs. Bush have two dogs and a cat living with them -- the dogs are named Barney and Miss Beazley and the cat is India. But there have been many unusual presidential pets as well. President Calvin Coolidge may have had the most pets. NEWS WORD BOX He had a pygmy hippopotamus, six dogs, a bobcat, a goose, a donkey, a cat, two lion cubs, an antelope, and popular issue record wallaby a wallaby. President Herbert Hoover had several dogs pygmy hippopotamus and his son had two pet alligators, which sometimes took walks outside the White House. Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, had a pony named Macaroni. She would ride Macaroni around the White House grounds. Some pets also worked while at the White House. Pauline the cow was the last cow to live at the White House. She provided milk for President William Taft. To save money during World War I, President Woodrow Wilson brought in a flock of sheep to trim the White House lawn. The flock included a ram named Old Ike.
