The Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library strives to be the place to which both scholars and a broad spectrum of interested citizens look to understand how Wilson changed our world and how his ideals continue to do so.  Woodrow Wilson understood the dynamic nature of democracy and the importance of informed discussion and debate. The Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library will carry on Wilson's work through events and activities that share the common goal of the development of informed policy based on fundamental democratic principles.
