Hayes Presidential Center is a complex comprising several buildings related to the life and presidency of Rutherford B. Hayes. It is the first presidential library, built in 1916, and one of three such libraries for US presidents during the 19th century. HistoryLocated in Fremont, Ohio, the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center comprises the Rutherford B. Hayes Museum and Library and Spiegel Grove, an estate encompassing the Hayes home, residence to several generations of the Hayes family. Opened in 1916, the Rutherford B. Hayes Center Library was one of the first presidential libraries.[1] The Center is supported by the private foundations, the Ohio Historical Society and Hayes Presidential Center Inc. The library holds the 12,000 volume personal library of Rutherford B. Hayes, as well as materials relating to his military and political career, particularly of his presidency from 1877 to 1881.[1] It also contains 70,000 volumes plus newspapers and journals from the time of the Civil War to the eve of World War I. The library was built by the state of Ohio in 1916, and was expanded in 1922 and in 1968.[2] Stephen A. Hayes, the great-great grandson of President Hayes, is the President of the Board of Trustees for the Presidential Center.[3] The center became national news in 1998 when the Associated Press reported that a real estate company in Florida sent a computerized letter to the Hayes Center, apparently inviting the former president to buy a condominium: "Rutherford, we're excited for you!" it read. The director of the center graciously turned down the offer for the long-dead President Hayes.[4] FocusThe library has continued its special interest in Rutherford B. Hayes and concentrates on the history of the U.S. from 1850 to 1917, especially the Civil War, Reconstruction, the Spanish–American War, railroad, education, black history and Indian/government relations. Second, the history of Ohio and the Sandusky River Valley and the Northwest are of interest. There is a large genealogical collection. The library contains history books on nearly every county of Ohio, but also on counties of many other states of the United States[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.rbhayes.org/hayes/library/ |title=The Hayes Research Library |accessdate=2013-11-30}} 2. ^{{citation|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: "Spiegel Grove," The Rutherford B.
