The papers of Bishop George Wilbur Baber are divided into seven series: biographical, correspondence, prayers and speeches, clippings, programs, African Methodist Episcopal Church, and photographs.
All correspondence to and from Baber is arranged chronologically in the Correspondence series. There is some correspondence with individual church members, particularly before 1965. The bulk of the series begins in 1965 and deals mostly with the administrative operations of the church and Kittrell College. There is also correspondence with political and religious leaders dealing with political and philosophical issues.
