The Iowa Folklore Project was a unit within the state's Federal Writers' Project, a division of the Works Progress Administration. Workers with the folklore program were instructed to interview Iowans and collect information on ethnic traditions, local legends and pioneer tales, superstitions and folk beliefs, local expressions and slang language. The Federal Writers' Project was funded by the U.S. government from 1935-1939, but state programs often continued through the early 1940s.

The North Dakota Historical Records Survey was to discover and preserve basic materials on the history of North Dakota and therefore contains local documents for cities, churches, etc.
