Series 1: Alumni Publications consists of periodicals written by and for graduates of Princeton University. The series consists largely of issues of Prospect Magazine, which was produced by the politically conservative group, the Concerned Alumni of Princeton. The series also includes early issues of the The Alumni Princetonian, which is the precursor to the Princeton Alumni Weekly, and which began as a weekly insert in the The Daily Princetonian in the 1890s.

Series 3: Student-generated publications are those documents composed by enrolled undergraduate or graduate students. Several 19th century student publications are present, including some of the earliest known student newspapers, such as The Balance (1802) which provides an account of a Nassau Hall fire, and The Chameleon, written by the Class of 1835. The series also includes special editions and joke issues of the Daily Princetonian, such as The Gaily Printsanything (circa 1920s). In addition, the years 1969 and 1996 saw particular literary flourishing, with the inception of several student-generated magazines consisting of a few issues before the magazines' discontinuation. In a few cases, the records of the creating organization are included with copies of the publications.

University Publications are those written by University academic departments or administrative divisions. A significant portion of publications in this series contains information for students such as freshman and sophomore academic guides; the booklet on academic policies, Rights, Rules and Responsibilities; orientation schedules, and related materials. This series also contains publications intended for potential Princeton students, such as Princeton Profile. Also present in this series are newsletters produced by academic departments and programs, as well as the Princeton Art Museum.

Series 7: Administrative Reports of Princeton University, also known as "Princeton Shelf Materials" were collected by and held at Firestone Library until 2011 as a central location for materials relating to the university, its students, and its faculty. The materials include university documents such as reports, surveys, and guides that relate to governance, administration and special initiatives.

Series 8 contains directories of undergraduate students, graduate students and faculty compiled by Administrative Information Services twice a year. These directories are csv files, beginning in 2008; digital files replaced the previous printed directories, housed in the Mudd Library stacks at P14.75 and P14.76. Student directories contain name, class year, college (for undergraduate students), department (for graduate students), campus contact information, status and affiliation. Faculty directories contain name, title, department, campus contact information, employee status and affiliation.
