Congress has restored funding of appropriated activities and staff at the George W. Bush Presidential Library are working to restore normal operations as quickly as possible. The Research Room is now open (please see "Plan A Research Visit" for more information). The privately run George W. Bush Presidential Center, including the George W. Bush Museum, remained open during the shutdown.
