This series consists of William Jovanovich's files on nearly two hundred authors and publishers with whom he worked. Author files consist of correspondence with authors, their agents, and Harcourt Brace Jovanovich editors, as well as originals and copies of early manuscripts and drafts of writings, press clippings, book jacket proofs, recordings, and other editorial materials, although not all files contain both correspondence and writings. While author files primarily exist for authors whose work was published by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, there are also files on authors whose works Jovanovich was considering publishing before a contract fell through, those like Ambrose Bierce and Hart Crane whose works he was interested in reprinting, and authors he did not publish but to whom he otherwise provided guidance or kept up correspondence. Publisher files consist largely of correspondence and include a significant amount of material related to Helen Wolff, of the Kurt and Helen Wolff Book imprint of Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, a collaboration that began in 1961. Author files on Edward Dahlberg, T. S. Eliot, Vane Ivanović, Marshall McLuhan, and Carl Sandburg are particularly extensive.

The bulk of this subseries consists of William Jovanovich's editorial drafts of chapters for Charles Lindbergh's Autobiography of Values, including several working versions of each chapter, along with setting copies, outlines, and plans for the book, notes, page proofs, and galley proofs. These materials document the transformation of Lindbergh's fragments into a completed whole heavily mediated by Jovanovich. A much smaller group of drafts, book jacket proofs, notes, and photographs related to the 1970 publication of The Wartime Journals of Charles A. Lindbergh is also present, as are long essays Lindbergh wrote in response to Kenneth Davis and Walter Ross's books about him and his corrections on John Nance's draft for The Gentle Tasaday, for which he also wrote the forward.

This subseries includes photographs of Charles A. Lindbergh, his family, and his home in Hawaii, including images collected by William Jovanovich and his staff in preparation for the publication of Autobiography of Values and The Wartime Journals of Charles A. Lindbergh. Many of the older photographic materials are reproductions from originals held by Yale University or negatives made from Lindbergh family photographs by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich staff.

This series consists of editorial correspondence, writings by and about Charles A. Lindbergh and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, photographs, clippings, and other research materials. The contents reflect William Jovanovich's role as the primary editor and compiler of Charles Lindbergh's Autobiography of Values, as well as his role as the executor of Lindbergh's literary estate. Shortly before Charles Lindbergh died in 1974, he called William Jovanovich to his hospital room, handed over a suitcase containing almost 3,000 pages of drafts written over three decades, and asked Jovanovich to shape them into a publishable autobiography. With the help of Judith A. Schiff, an archivist at Yale University, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich published the heavily edited Autobiography of Values in 1978. While Lindbergh's original drafts reside at Yale, this series includes Jovanovich's working drafts for Autobiography of Values throughout the editorial process, as well as related correspondence, photographs, and research materials. Some drafts, notes, and other editorial materials pertaining to The Wartime Journals of Charles A. Lindbergh, which Harcourt Brace Jovanovich published in 1970, are also present.

This subseries consists of correspondence that Jovanovich filed chronologically, including both personal and business correspondence. For the years 1948 to 1952, correspondence consists of photocopies rather than the original letters, and there is a gap in correspondence during the mid-1950s. Correspondence for the late 1990s and 2000s is increasingly personal in nature.

This series consists of drafts, proofs, notes, research files, and source materials for Jovanovich's own writings and lectures, along with related correspondence, reviews, and clippings. Materials span his written works in nonfiction and fiction, as well as lectures and speeches on various topics related to publishing and writing, although some works are documented much more thoroughly than others. Jovanovich's nonfiction books, essays, and speeches largely revolve around the publishing industry, textbook publishing, the value of education, Serbian history, and creative writing. Writings represented in this series include Jovanovich's novels Madmen Must (1978), The Last Place (1978) and The World's Last Night (1990), his collection of essays Now, Barabbas (1964), and his memoir The Temper of the West (2003). While major works comprise their own files, there is also an alphabetical run of shorter essays and speeches, containing typescripts and clippings. Also included are several files regarding lectures Jovanovich gave at various colleges and universities, as well as some related correspondence.
