The Correspondence Series includes letters, notes, and telegrams from a variety of individuals, usually to or from Woodrow Wilson (although some correspondence is between others and is related to Wilson). Perhaps the most notable portion of this series is the Wilson family correspondence, including letters between Wilson and his first wife, Ellen Axson Wilson, from their courtship through the end of her life in 1914, as well as correspondence to and from his daughters Jessie and Margaret, and his brother-in-law Stockton Axson. This series also includes a "Special Correspondence Collections" section, which contains shorthand notebooks of Wilson letters recorded by his secretary, Gilbert Close, as well as correspondence collections of other individuls close to Wilson, including Lawrence Woods, David Huston, and Mary Hulbert, as well as the Thackwell collection of correspondence between Woodrow family members and especially between Woodrow Wilson and his cousin, Harriet Woodrow. These collections include letters to and from Wilson and others. The final section of the Correspondence Series includes copies of letters in other collections.

The Documents Series includes originals and photostats of many important documents written, signed, or received by Woodrow Wilson, including applications, appointments, constitutions, resolutions, and property and deed documents. Of note are the marriage license of Woodrow Wilson and Edith Bolling Galt, as well as "Resolutions Regarding the Graduate School of Princeton University, 1908."

The Printed Matter Series consists of printed matter by and about Woodrow Wilson, mainly printed addresses, speeches, and cartoons in newspaper and printed forms.

The Papers of Others About Woodrow Wilson Series consists of groups of papers collected by others about Woodrow Wilson. The collectors include writings, correspondence, documents, and photos collection by family (Stockton Axson, Eleanor Wilson McAdoo, and Margaret Wilson), along with writings such as reminiscences, theses, or dissertations on Wilson and correspondence collections on Wilson (Wilson Farrand, McMillan Lewis, William McCombs). Also included in this series is the Henry Bragdon Collection of Reminiscences (made up of interviews and correspondence on Wilson), papers of Laura Turnbull, the Curator of the Woodrow Wilson Collection, on her work for Woodrow Wilson: A Selected Bibliography of his Writings, Addresses, and Public Papers, and some files of the Woodrow Wilson Foundation. Finally, the series includes the papers of Charles L. Swem, Wilson's stenographic secretary, including shorthand notebooks, transcriptions of speeches, correspondence, and interviews recorded from 1912-1921, as well as photographs, and documents, divided into sections on Wilson and on personal topics, and a collection of newspaper clipping scrapbooks on Wilson from the Woodrow Wilson Foundation and individuals.
