The Meeting Minutes series contains the meeting minutes of the Ladies Auxiliary. Included are annual meetings of the entire body, more frequent but less well-attended regular meetings, and executive board meetings. Each set of minutes notes the type of meeting, and contains the date of the meeting, its location, a list of attendees, and issues discussed or voted upon. Until 1915 the minutes are handwritten in bound ledgers by the Ladies Auxiliary Secretary.

The Correspondence series primarily documents Bowman's childhood and young adulthood, from his stay as a boy at a sanitarium in Kansas City for diabetes treatment through his years at Stanford and Princeton. Correspondence between Bowman and his mother, Mary Augusta Brooks Bowman, is particularly rich in part because they wrote each other almost daily and in great detail. Bowman's letters to his mother from Stanford and Princeton, in particular, are lively and quick-witted and reveal his myriad social activities, impressions of college life, and opinions on subjects of all sorts, from family matters to politics to popular films and actors. Correspondence with his father, sister, and brother can be equally revealing but does not match the sheer volume of correspondence between mother and son. Letters from Bowman's friends are also worth noting for their vivid evocations of private school and college life in the 1920s and 1930s. Bowman corresponded with several young women, including a cousin, Edith Brooks, who was traveling in the car with Bowman at the time he was killed. The young women's letters, in particular, contain a vivaciousness and convey their own and Bowman's very active social lives. Bowman also maintained a correspondence over many years with a member of the crew he met on a Cunard Lines voyage he took as a boy with his family. The crew member sent Bowman many letters and postcards from his voyages around the world.

Brooks Bowman '36 is best remembered as the composer of the songs "East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)" and "Love and a Dime." The Brooks Bowman Papers consist of correspondence and photographs that document his school years and his foray into the music industry. The bulk of the papers consist of Bowman's correspondence with his mother, sister, and numerous friends.

Subseries 1B: Departments, 1942-1972 (bulk 1956-1972) contains correspondence with departmental chairs and others concerning the organization and functioning of individual departments, their programs, and research. The correspondence, which may be of a confidential nature, is supplemented by the confidential reports to the Presidents, to be found in Series 2E (Administrative–Office of the President). Reorganization is a recurring theme among the departmental correspondence, and researchers should be aware of mergers and separations of departments. Examples are the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, and the Department of Economics and Sociology, which by the mid-sixties were reorganized into separate departments of Economy, Anthropology and Sociology. As a result, information on the 'Econometric Research Program" can be found under "Economics and Sociology" for the period 1957-1960 and under "Economics" for the period 1960-1970. Information about the internal structure of departments may be found in the Princeton University Catalogue.
