The collection consists of materials concerning Urantia Foundation and related groups, such as administrative records, court documents, conference proceedings, correspondence, newspaper-clippings, audiovisual material, Urantia book prints, essays, organizational publications and related research materials. Included are educational materials of the Urantia Book, especially the Boulder School, and members' personal papers.

The Urantia Book, first published in 1955, is spiritual book that presents the origins, history, and destiny of humanity. The teachings traverse concepts of the universe, life and teachings of Jesus from a Christian perspective, and personal spiritual growth. The exact circumstances surrounding the origins of The Urantia Book are vague as the book is without an author, but instead the writings are believed to be from celestial beings providing an "epochal" religious revelation. The Uranita Book consists of 196 papers divided into four parts.
