List of all 700 titles to date inducted into the National Film Registry (the United States National Film Preservation Board's selection of films for preservation in the Library of Congress) by registry entry title.

Beginning in 1989, 25 titles are named to the registry each year. This list includes all titles through the most recent additions to the Registry in 2016. They are grouped by their registry date and alphabetically therein.

If a title has more than one part (such as "Rip Van Winkle", "Through Navajo Eyes", "Why We Fight", et al), only the first film is listed here. See the comments section for clarifications on this.
