Bush Presidential Library. As part of the George W. Bush Presidential Center at Southern Methodist University (SMU), we are proud to serve as the nation’s 13th Presidential library administered by the National Archives and Records Administration. The George W. Bush Presidential Library serves as a resource for the study of George W. Bush and the Bush Administration. More generally, the Library also provides invaluable information for the study of the presidency, important events and developments in recent American history, and the making of public policy. The Library accomplishes its mission by preserving and providing access to presidential records and other donated collections, hosting public programs, creating educational initiatives, preserving artifacts, and producing innovative museum exhibits. Our archival collections are extensive. We have over 70 million pages of paper documents, approximately 80 terabytes of electronic information (including over 209 million emails), 43,000 artifacts (consisting primarily of foreign and domestic gifts to the President and First Lady), and an immense audiovisual archives, including nearly 4 million photographs. Our duty is to preserve these materials, process them, and make them accessible for research. Our future museum will tell the story of the Bush Administration within the context of four principles that guide the decisions and actions of the President and Mrs.

    Policy Brief #155 the Brookings Institution June 2006

    Policy Brief #155 The Brookings Institution June 2006 International Volunteering: Smart Power By Lex Rieffel and Sarah Zalud EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The face of America that has been welcomed most enthusiastically in the rest of the world for decades has been the face of a volunteer: assisting with disaster relief, building houses for poor families, teaching English to university students, and so much more. International volunteer programs contribute directly and indirectly to our nation’s security and well-being. They represent one of the best avenues Americans can pursue to improve relations with the rest of the world. The scale of these programs, however, is far below the levels suggested by their benefits. The federal budget for FY 2006 supports 75,000 AmeriCorps volunteers working domestically but only 7,800 Peace Corps volunteers working in foreign countries. Reflecting the value that Americans see in volunteering overseas, programs in the private sector have grown rapidly in the past ten years. In 2005, at least 50,000 Americans participated in NGO and corporate programs. The number could be much higher, easily more than 100,000, with a program like AmeriCorps that leverages private funding. The number could be doubled again by offering additional options suitable to large pools of talent, such as retiring baby boomers. The potential dividends from scaling up international volunteer programs are impressive relative to most other “soft power” programs of the U.S. government. The time is ripe for a breakthrough in this area, with policies aimed at strengthening existing programs such as increased funding for the Peace Corps, raising the public awareness of volunteer programs overseas, linking service and studie, and measuring effectiveness.
