Background

Scope and content:

The Russell Library holds a partially complete collection of cassettes and/or compact discs duplicating the original audio materials housed at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library. All recordings containing conversations between President Johnson and Senator Richard B. Russell and transcripts of those conversations, as well as many others, are duplicated here. Researchers interested in listening to these recordings or viewing the transcripts of these recordings should first discern which tape or transcript is required by searching the recordings database located on the website of the Johnson Presidential Library . The "tape number" in the database will correspond to the tape number of the duplicate recording at the Russell Library, and the month and year of the recording will correspond to the transcript on file at the Russell Library.

These same recordings, as well as presidential recordings from Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Richard Nixon, are available to listen to online via the Presidential Recordings Program of the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.

Arrangement:

The collection is arranged in two series: I. Audiovisual Materials and II. Transcripts. Series I. is arranged by recording number.

Access and use restrictions

Restrictions:

Though the collection is open for research, reference copies of the audiovisual recordings are available upon request. Research requests will be filled as soon as possible and will be dependent upon the condition of the recordings.

Terms of access:

It is the particular responsibility of the researcher to obtain permission to reproduce material for publication. Persons wishing to reproduce materials in the Russell Library collections should consult the Director. Reproduction or quotation of any item must contain a complete citation to the original.
