Biographical contains miscellaneous sources of material, some written by Moore himself.

The Correspondence series has been divided into four subseries, three by time period (and then alphabetically) and one for Moore's correspondence with Albert Krueger. Much of the 1927-1940 correspondence pertains to Moore's role as professor of electrical engineering at the University of Michigan, and covers a wide variety of topics in electrical engineering and teaching. The 1944-1964 correspondence focuses largely on biology and his research for an unpublished study entitled, "Comparative Animal Energy." The 1965-1984 correspondence consists largely of material describing Moore's retirement activities, particularly his traveling and electrostatics lectures and demonstrations. The Albert Krueger subseries covers the period, 1972-1981, and consists of correspondence with Krueger, a medical doctor at the University of California-Berkeley. Krueger's main area of interest involved the biological effects of air ionization.
