Former U.S. President Joe Biden's presidential library will be built in his home state of Delaware, his office said on Sept. 6.

Biden, who served as president for four years until January 2025, represented Delaware for 36 years in the U.S. Senate before becoming vice president for President Barack Obama.

He ran for president in 2020, beating President Donald Trump, and took office in 2021. Last year he ran for re-election, only to step aside after a disastrous debate against Trump. Former Vice President Kamala Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee instead and lost to Trump in November.

Biden has ties to nearby Philadelphia but his home state won out for the presidential library. The exact location has not yet been determined. Biden and his wife, Jill, have houses in Wilmington, Delaware, and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
