* Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum was not originally part of the Presidential library system. While the Nixon Presidential Materials Staff, which administers the Nixon Presidential materials under the terms of the Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act, is part of NARA; the library was run by a private foundation. In January 2004, Congress passed legislation that provided for the establishment of a federally operated Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda. In March 2005, the Archivist of the United States and the privately run Nixon Library & Birthplace Foundation, exchanged letters on the requirements to allow the Nixon Library to become the twelfth federally funded Presidential library operated by the NARA by 2007. On October 16, 2006, the first federal director of the Nixon Library was named, and in the winter of 2006 NARA began transferring the 30,000 Presidential gifts from the Nixon Presidential Materials Staff in College Park, Maryland to Yorba Linda, California.[1][2] On July 11, 2007, the Nixon Foundation deeded the Library and Birthplace to the government of the United States. On the same day, the newly-renamed federal Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum officially opened.[3]

** On December 22, 2006, the site selection committee for the George W. Bush Library Foundation announced that they had entered into "exclusive discussions" with Southern Methodist University; however, the final selection has not been announced, and controversy surrounds the choice of SMU. [4]
