Computer Museum

Our Mission
The mission of the Computer History Museum is to preserve and present for posterity the artifacts and stories of the information age. As such, the Museum plays a unique role in the history of the computing revolution and its worldwide impact on the human experience.

Background
Established in 1996, the Computer History Museum is a public benefit organization dedicated to the preservation and celebration of computing history. It is home to one of the largest collections of computing artifacts in the world, a collection comprising over 13,000 objects, 20,000 images, 5,000 moving images, 4,000 linear feet of cataloged documentation and 5,000 titles or several hundred gigabytes of software.

Future Plans
The Computer History Museum's efforts are well underway to create a worthy home in Silicon Valley. In October 2002, the Museum acquired a landmark building at 1401 N. Shoreline Blvd in Mountain View, Calif. and opened its first phase to the public in June 2003. Future plans include full museum exhibits and much more.
