The Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library and Museum strives to be the place to which both scholars and a broad spectrum of interested citizens look to understand how President Wilson changed the world and how his ideals continue to do so. The Presidential Library is open 360 days a year for guests from around the world to tour the President’s Birthplace, the Museum, and the historic gardens and to visit the President’s Shop. Thousands of schoolchildren participate in a variety of educational programming each year. The Presidential Library, which attracts top-flight speakers, including Scott Berg, Larry Sabato, Cokie Roberts, Bill Schneider, and Robert Samuelson, runs teacher institutes and hosts a variety of educational symposia. The Presidential Library has a large collection of Wilson and Wilson-related documents and artifacts, and many of the documents are on-line on the Wilson eLibrary so that students, scholars, teachers, and others around the world can access these documents for free.
