By joining Foursquare, the ÍþÄá˹ÈËÓéÀÖ³¡ invites users to learn more about this nation’s history via social media. Each tip highlights an interesting place or event related to the ÍþÄá˹ÈËÓéÀÖ³¡ and the Presidential Libraries & Museums. Tips can be sent to smart phones based on user locations or viewed on the Web. The debut of the ÍþÄá˹ÈËÓéÀÖ³¡ on Foursquare features tips relating to the Washington, DC, Kansas City, and Philadelphia ÍþÄá˹ÈËÓéÀÖ³¡ locations. In the coming months, the ÍþÄá˹ÈËÓéÀÖ³¡â€™ Foursquare presence will expand to include regional Archives facilities nationwide.
The Presidential Libraries on Foursquare bring the life and times of each President alive through tips at each Library and Museum location, and at landmarks across the country. In celebration of the 2011 Ronald Reagan Centennial, an ongoing release of tips will highlight interesting places and events related to President Reagan.
