Lyndon B. Johnson Library and Museum (Modernist presidential library)

The Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum opened in 1971 on the University of Texas at Austin campus and houses President Johnson’s presidential papers, artifacts, and public exhibits. The building is a noted example of late-modern institutional architecture situated adjacent to the university’s central campus. It functions as both an archival research center and a public museum documenting the Johnson administration and 1960s-era policy history.
