Jefferson Davis Presidential Library and Museum, Historical museum and library in Biloxi, United States

The Jefferson Davis Presidential Library and Museum is a long, flat-roofed, cream-colored building at the Beauvoir site in Biloxi, Mississippi. A projecting portico with four square columns stands over a wide staircase leading to a raised entrance terrace, with three tall windows above it. Wings with rectangular windows flank the center, a two-story glass-walled section protrudes on the right, and thin dark letters on the left wing read "JEFFERSON DAVIS."

The library opened within Beauvoir, Jefferson Davis's last home, to house his papers and artifacts; it is run by the Mississippi Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and supported by the State of Mississippi. On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina destroyed the library pavilion, the Hayes Cottage, the Soldiers Home barracks replica, the Confederate Soldiers Museum, the gift shop and the director's home. A $4.1 million bid to rebuild was accepted on January 9, 2007, and the new library, designed by Larry Albert, was rededicated on June 3, 2013, with $10 million from FEMA for construction.

The library is run by the Mississippi Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, not the National Archives, since Davis was never U.S. president; a plaque at the entrance notes Mississippi state support. Inside are rotating temporary exhibits and a permanent display on Davis's life. Outside stands a statue of Davis by sculptor William Beckwith.

The library stands within the Beauvoir historical site in Biloxi, Mississippi, near the waterfront. It is managed by the Mississippi Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans, and supported by the State of Mississippi, as noted on a plaque at the entrance. Check opening times before visiting, as the site also includes the historic house and grounds.

The library is not a federal presidential library: Jefferson Davis was never U.S. president, so the National Archives and Records Administration does not administer it. A plaque at the entrance notes support from the State of Mississippi, and the Mississippi Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans manages it. A statue of Davis by sculptor William Beckwith stands outside the museum.
