The Project
The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library will show what we can learn from, not about, our 26th President. These are our values:

Dare Greatly

Think boldly

live Passionately

Care deeply


The Design
The design process for the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library is informed by Roosevelt’s personal reflections on the landscape, his interest in environmental stewardship, and periods of quiet introspection and civic engagement in his life.

Sustainability
The Library’s design will reflect and expand upon those values, setting an ambitious new standard for environmental conservation and sustainability leadership.

Native Plant Project
TRPL is sponsoring a notable Native Plant Project in partnership with Resource Environmental Solutions (RES) and North Dakota State University (NDSU) to help restore indigenous plants to the Library’s extensive outdoor spaces.

TR has been making headlines even to this day. See what people are saying about him and the organization.

Building construction began in the summer of 2023. Follow our blog and see the progress we’re making in Medora.

A Letter from Ed O'Keefe
There are two questions I repeatedly encounter about this ambitious project: Why does Theodore Roosevelt not have a presidential library? Why North Dakota?
