Since its founding in 1919, the Hoover Institution Library & Archives has served as a platform for a vibrant community of students, scholars, and a broad public interested in the meaning and role of history. Located in the heart of the Stanford University campus, the Library & Archives is home to more than 6000 archival collections and one million library volumes containing the most important materials on war, revolution, and peace, and social, political, and economic change from the late 19th century to the present day. Its mission to collect, preserve, describe, and make available for research and discovery records of enduring value continues to this day.
