Obama library battle: Chicago vs. Hawaii [View all]

David Jackson, USA TODAY
9:46a.m. EST December 26, 2012

The battle is on for part of President Obama's legacy: The presidential library.

The University of Chicago and the University of Hawaii -- schools from Obama's home city and his birth state -- have expressed interest in hosting the library that will hold records from President Obama's administration.

Every president since Herbert Hoover has sponsored a library; the George W. Bush library is scheduled to be dedicated next year in Dallas.

What the heck does Chicago need another library for?
