The research materials are on miscellaneous topics paralleling those of the picture collection.

The records relating to specific books are organized alphabetically by author or, in the case of an anthology, by title.

The ninth series contains files regarding proposed book projects that were not completed by NeWest. The tenth series contains unsolicited manuscript proposals and their accompanying rejection letters.

The final series consists of electronic records, including manuscripts, office file backups and systems disks. Since the Archives lacks the technological resources to access all of these records, they have only been partially processed.
