Whether you're a Democrat or Republican every Presidential library is a must stop and this one is extra special. The view is amazing. The exhibits are always up to date. And Cafe 42 has great food. But don't miss the Clinton Museum store which is loaded with treasures from around the world.

The Clinton Presidential Library is a great gift to the city of Little Rock by one of our most productive presidents. The library includes the good, the bad and the ugly of President Clinton's administration. Well worth the drive to Little Rock just to see it.

Ive been to many presidential libraries (Truman, Ike, LBJ, Kennedy) and this was one of the best. Lots of information to absorb. We rented the headphones, but turned them off after a few exhibits as there was plenty to process just reading the information in each exhibit. Great restaurant with reasonably priced items in the basement.

Thoroughly enjoyed this Presidential Library. Nicely arranged. Good introductory movie and lots of great videos throughout. The volunteers are all very pleasant and helpful. We spent 3 hours here and could have spent more time. If I were going again, I would plan to pack a picnic lunch and break my visit into morning & afternoon sessions with a picnic... More

Found it really hard to read much of the material due to reflective surfaces. And the video moniotors were mounted where glass panels met creating a distracted view if the content. Organization of the content felt odd. And all the sounds from one exhibit made it hard to experience one. All in all an interesting building with a poor exhibit... More

if you are in Little Rock you should try to see the presidential library but make sure you have about 3-4 hours to see it all; there is a movie theater that you watch a 20-30 minute movie and there are muliple floors and thousands of exhibits to see so make sure you have plenty of time

Good and interesting artifcats about clinton history and also real life replicas of the white house oval office...Worth the visit. Visit usually takes up 3-4 hours if covering everything at a leisurely pace.

Very comprehensive and interactive. You get a sense of the person and the presidency as well as his family.

There is a lot to see here, even if you didn't vote for Clinton back in the 90's. Tons of articles donated from foreign nationalist that are really cool to check out, and lots of very interesting trivia from the 90's - all of it presented in such a way to hold your attention even if your attention span is...

President Bill Clinton kept a great record of his life in the White House for 8 years. You can see even his daily agenda! I think if you want to have a clue what a president does, it is worth visiting it.
