Foundation for the National Archives
The purpose of the Foundation for the National Archives is to educate, enrich, and inspire a deeper appreciation of our national heritage through the collected historical evidence. The Foundation was created to support the Archivist of the United States in developing programs, technology, projects and materials to introduce and interpret the Archives collection to the American public and to people around the world.
The 126-page book “The National Archives Building: Temple of American History” by Patty Reinert Mason was designed by Legendre+Rutter. It is available in the museum store of the National Archives in Washington D.C. New photography by Colin Winterbottom and Carol Highsmith.
