The Ecology Center of Ann Arbor records are divided into four series: Administrative Records, Topical files, Publications and Publicity, and Visual Materials. The records document the efforts of this grassroots community organization to increase environmental awareness through the establishment of recycling and energy conservation programs, and by publicizing the need for pesticide control and responsible solid waste disposal among other issues. With recent accessions, the division between Administrative Records and Publications and Publicity is less distinct, as center publications were often included with planning and meeting materials. Researchers should check both series when looking for material printed by and about the Ecology Center.
Both the Topical Files and Visual Materials series are divided into sub-series. The Topical Files series is divided into sub-series based on the date range represented by the materials in the order in which they were processed. There is significant overlap between sub-series. The Visual Materials series is divided into sub-series based on the type of records represented.
The bulk of the collection is topical files maintained by the center regarding policies, campaigns, lawsuits, and environmental activism, relevant to center activities. Materials included in the Topical Files series include lawsuits, meetings, and documentation related to DOW Chemical Company; medical waste and incinerators; pesticides, particularly dioxin, and their environmental impact; and environmental and racial justice. This series also includes lawsuits with Gelman Sciences and Lindane, and partnership materials with the Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition, Healthcare Without Harm, and the Michigan Network for Children's Environmental Health, among other local organizations.

The collection is comprised of two series; Administration and Background Information, and Other Media. The bulk of the records are in the Administration series, which contains information pertaining to the history of the organization, fundraising efforts by the Flounders for a score board, memorials, and bills for annual charges for supplies and rental of space. The Other Media series primarily documents random weekly games, team pictures, and the planting of a memorial tree in 1983 for deceased Flounder member John Slocum. There are also digital materials that contain images of members, miscellaneous clippings, and the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Flounders in 2003. The paper records accumulated during the making of the anniversary video recordings, which include typed captions for images, are within the administration series. A VHS Tape is also included as part of the collection that contains material documented in 2002.

The Gay Delanghe papers document a range of Delanghe's professional activities, with particular focus on choreography, teaching, and performing. The bulk of the records originate from the time of her graduation from the University of Michigan in 1965 through the first twenty years of her tenure in the University of Michigan Dance Department. There are few records from her childhood and college years, or from her late career. The records serve to illuminate her engagements as a dancer, and as a teacher, as well as the processes that went into her choreography and the staging of her work. In addition to this finding aid, a performance list exists which attempts to compile information on all of Delanghe's performances for which documentation exists in the collection. This list is available in Performance and Publicity series and upon request.
The collection is divided into ten series of materials relating to various aspects of the professional and artistic activities of Gay Delanghe. These series are: Biographical Materials, Choreography, Correspondence, Funding and Awards, Notebooks, Photographs, Programs and Publicity, Teaching, University of Michigan Department of Dance, and Audiovisual Materials.
