Might be the first Presidential Library with only ghost written books, if there are any books. Most likely, highlights of golf tournaments and professional wrestling commentary on playback monitors will be the main features.

A lot of the Presidential Museums are stuffed with gifts and non-books. I remember seeing George Foreman's championship belt and red satin robe at the Lyndon B. Johnson Library--given in honor of LBJ's Job Corps program.

There are not that many and 3 in Texas. Also I don't think people think of JFK library as a presidential library, but of course it is.

I could drive you nuts with this...but the Presidential Libraries act didn't start until FDR so all the presidents before him don't have official libraries. So that means they are kind of "up for grabs" which is why North Dakota is building one for TR. I follow them on X: https://x.com/TRPresLibrary
