This list includes the principal files in the Johnson Library that contain material relating to political affairs.

The guide includes those collections that have been opened for research in part or in whole, and those collections that are currently unprocessed or unavailable. See also the guides: Congress; Public Opinion Polls and Mail; Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (MFDP); New Hampshire Politics; The President’s Club; Public Opinion Polls and Mail; 1968-69 Presidential Transition; Whistle Stop; plus those for individuals such as Barry Goldwater, Robert F. Kennedy, etc.

LYNDON BAINES JOHNSON ARCHIVES 1931-1968

In 1958, the Johnson staff instituted a records management program in the office, which included a plan to dispose of noncurrent files. They set up the Lyndon Baines Johnson Archives (LBJA) to house items to be permanently retained rather than scheduled for disposal. Johnson files from the House and Senate period were screened, and selected items and files were moved to the LBJA file. Between 1958 and 1963, the staff continued to add to the file. Occasionally items were added during the White House period. The LBJA consists of four files: Congressional, Famous Names, Selected Names and Subject.

Box # Famous Names File 1-9 Selected Name File 10-38 Congressional File 427-442 Subject File 68-71, 88-91, 105, 110
