LBJ signed 60 education bills during his presidency, including the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and the Higher Education Act.

The library, led by our education department, carries on that legacy every day through the nearly 11,000 students (and their teachers and school educators) who visit and participate in our educational programming and activities each year.
