More information about Final Jeopardy:

The concept of the Presidential Library originated with Franklin Roosevelt, who, during his second term, realized he had a vast quantity of paperwork that he and his staff had accumulated. Realizing that many past records had been lost, ruined, destroyed, or sold for profit, he decided that a better alternative would be to establish a public archive of his records to preserve the evidence of his Presidency for future generations. Every past president from Hoover onwards now has a library/museum.

The only state with three is Texas: Lyndon Johnson’s in Austin, George H. W. Bush’s in College Station, and George W. Bush’s in Dallas. California has two: Nixon’s in Yorba Linda and Reagan’s in Simi Valley, while the Gerald Ford library and museum are in two different Michigan locations: the library in Ann Arbor and the museum in Grand Rapids.
