The F. Thomas Juster papers document Juster's contributions to the field of social science, primarily during his time as research scientist and professor of economics at the University of Michigan. Featured prominently in this collection are records of the Health and Retirement Study, for which Juster served as founding director, as well as his numerous writings. The papers are arranged into eight series: Asset and Health Dynamics Among the Oldest Old, Biographical, Correspondence, Health and Retirement Study, Michigan Retirement Research Center, Testimony, Topical, and Writings.

The Institute for Social Research (ISR) records are dated from 1936-2017 (scattered) and consist of 143.8 linear feet (in 146 boxes) and digital files (online). Materials in this record group include audiovisual material, committee files (which include minutes and agendas), correspondence, directors' files, oral histories, publications, reports, and topical files. These records document the founding and subsequent development of ISR as well as its centers and programs, particularly the Program for Research on Black Americans (PRBA) and the Survey Research Center (SRC). The records also provide an overview of ISR's administration and the evolution of social science survey research methodology.
There are gaps in the records, which can be addressed in part through the papers of Rensis Likert, Angus Campbell, Dorwin P. Cartwright, and Philip E. Converse—all of which are held at the Bentley Historical Library (BHL). When viewed in conjunction with other ISR-related personal papers in the Bentley Historical Library, a rich and detailed picture of the growth of ISR as a center and the social science research discipline emerges.
