Founded by Herbert Hoover in 1919, the Hoover Institution Library & Archives are dedicated to documenting war, revolution, and peace in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. With nearly one million volumes and more than six thousand archival collections from 171 countries, Hoover supports a vibrant community of scholars and a broad public interested in the meaning and role of history.
The Hoover Institution Stories, or HI Stories, emerge from the collections of the Hoover Institution Library & Archives and the fellows, staff, and researchers who study them.
