The Borlaug Digital Archive provides scholars and the general public with access to the papers of Dr. Norman E. Borlaug in an effort to build on his lifetime of research, and inspire the next generation of scholars as they confront the agricultural challenges of the twenty–first century. The digital repository contains records covering his entire career from the 1940s until his death in 2009. The initial release of documents will be followed by additional releases as records are scanned and reviewed for access restrictions.
