1986年，罗珀中心庆祝了其作为世界上最大的调查数据档案馆的第四十个年头。事实上，1946年，埃尔莫罗珀在威廉姆斯学院成立了这个中心。由罗珀研究协会进行的177项调查的集合使该中心成为第一个民意调查数据档案馆。从一开始，该中心就奠定了一个框架，使舆论研究领域的其他先驱，特别是老乔治盖洛普，开始欣赏它的学术性随后，这些先驱者中的许多人通过捐赠自己的调查材料来帮助增加其持有量。
In 1986 The Roper Center celebrated its fortieth year as the largest archive of survey data in the world. It was, in fact, 1946 when Elmo Roper founded the center at Williams College. A collection of 177 surveys conducted by Roper Research Associates served to establish the center as the first archive of polling data. From the start, the center laid the framework by which other pioneers in the field of opinion research, especially George Gallup, Sr., came to appreciate its scholarly nature. Subsequently many of these pioneers helped increase its holdings by donating survey material of their own.
