== History and operation ==
Michael Feinstein's lifetime interest in, and immense knowledge of, the music of the Great American Songbook led him to found the organization in 2007. Upon Michael Feinstein's appointment as Artistic Director of the Center for the Performing Arts in 2009, the organization committed to locating its headquarters and archives on the Center's campus in Carmel, IN.〔Jay Handelman, “Behind the Scenes: Feinstein Works to Preserve Classic Music”, ''Herald-Tribune'' Sunday, March 31, 2013, retrieved from http://arts.heraldtribune.com/2013-03-31/featured/behind-the-scenes-feinstein-works-to-preserve-classic-music/.〕
The Great American Songbook Foundation's administrative headquarters houses a reference library, study and listening rooms for researchers, archival storage space, and the Songbook Exhibit Gallery, an exhibit space featuring rotating interactive presentations about the music, its creators and the performers of the Songbook.〔Joel Henning, “A Cultural Conversation with Michael Feinstein: Saving the Songbook”, ''Wall Street Journal'', Feb. 2, 2012, retrieved from http://search.proquest.com/docview/919205138?accountid=7398.〕 The long-term goal of the Great American Songbook Foundation is to construct a free-standing museum on the campus of the Center with additional exhibit, instructional, and programming space.
The Great American Songbook Foundation is staffed by four full-time employees. They are assisted by a volunteer group of ten docents who serve as guides for the Songbook Gallery and ten collections assistants who assist the archivist with the Songbook Foundation's preservation efforts. The Songbook Foundation's Board of Directors currently has twenty-two members from throughout the nation.
