		The Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace is the presidential library of Richard Milhous Nixon, 37th President of the United States, located at 18001 Yorba Linda Boulevard in Yorba Linda, California.

		The Nixon library's John Taylor told The New York Times that Waller Taylor was not a Nixon family lawyer, but "happened to occupy the same law firm office as former Vice President Nixon."
		In the Nixon Library statement, Taylor called the charge that Nixon used the drugs an "unproven idea," but acknowledged that "Dreyfus provided thousands of pills to President Nixon." Nixon, he said, accepted the pills as a "courtesy to his friend," but never ingested them.
