The Emancipation Proclamation on Display at Reagan Library:

For preservation purposes, this original document is only allowed to be on display for four days each calendar year. This is an extraordinary opportunity for the Southern California community to view this national treasure. To accommodate as many guests as possible, the Reagan Library will offer extended hours on those four days. Please check back here for exact hours in the coming month.
