This series combines all meetings, both annual and mid-winter, into folders arranged by year. These dates are not inclusive, most years are completed but there are a couple missing. Of special note is the first folder that contains a list of locations where proceedings of meetings from the founding in 1870 until the 1930's can be found (usually the New York State Library). This series contains meeting minutes, speeches, correspondence, and agendas. There is an abundance of correspondence surrounding the planning and reservations for the meetings held bi-annually. Great care was taken with this series to arrange every record chronological by day and month within each year. Many letters related to the mid-winter conference, usually held in February, would be found in the previous year's records. Records related to the bi-annual meetings are found in other series such as Elsie M. Bond's files and the correspondence files.

This subseries contains the published writings of Ernest van den Haag arranged numerically by the number assigned each. This subseries represents the bulk of the collection and is one of the best sources for studying the philosophy of Ernest van den Haag. He wrote articles that cover a wide spectrum of political and social issues of his day. This subseries is unique in that it contains not only van den Haag's drafts, but in most cases the articles in their final published form, providing the researcher a glimpse of the contemporary context. These publications include drafts for books, reviews, chapters, and articles by van den Haag. The publications were assigned individual numbers probably reflecting the order of creation not the date of publication. The arrangement within each folder is as follows: the final published form of the article usually containing the periodical cover page, the contents page, and the article itself; correspondence, usually between van den Haag and the publisher, as well as any other related correspondence; rough drafts of the article, usually in order from oldest to newest; research material used in creation of the article as well as articles from other authors that represent debate over van den Haag's views and facts. Publication number 194 contains a letter from President Nixon thanking van den Haag for his balanced views on war crimes in Vietnam. Publication number 338 is an excellent example of the type of controversy surrounding some articles written by van den Haag. Publication number 439 contains a letter from Congressman Charles Rangel opposing Haag's views on the legalization of illegal drugs.
