Final Minutes were kept from 1802-1928. From 1916 through 1928, the regular meetings were divided into three separate books: Speaker's Council meetings, Literary Section meetings, Business meetings.

Whig Council Minutes were kept from 1865-1870 and 1914-1928. The Whig Council, a body composed of the Comptroller, the Treasurer, the Librarian, and the Sergeant at Arms, decided on the reversal of fines.

Senate Minutes were kept from 1840-1941. The Whig Senate was a graduate body based upon the United State Senate which made major administrative decisions for the Hall.

Rough Minutes were kept from 1840-1924. The Rough Minutes contain a more descriptive record of the meetings than do the Final Minutes. In addition, these minutes were kept due to the significant omissions of voting records and rolls found in the Final Minutes. The Rough minutes range from 1840 through 1915 and are divided into three sections, as above, from 1916 through 1924.

Resolution Books were kept from 1853-1908. These books include the by-laws and new statutes voted upon at regular meetings and the administrative items considered for weekly votes. These records span from 1853-1908 with many missing years because many of the items in the Resolution books were usually included in the Final Minutes.

Division Book, one volume, was kept from 1881-1889. The Division book listed all of the members of Whig and each of their affiliations with the respective divisions. The members were separated into divisions by class year.

These books contain the attendance records of members at the business and regular meetings.
