The collection contains a wide variety of material. This includes correspondence, articles, speeches, clippings, certificates, ephemera, drawings (charts by Cubberley) and other legal and financial documents. This material reflects almost every aspect of Cubberley's life, although the collection is clearly lacking the bulk of Cubberley's office files created while he served as dean of the School of Education.

Ellwood Patterson Cubberley was born in Andrews, Indiana June 8, 1868.
