They include a city survey from January 22, 1930 by Charles Heilenday Inc., an annotated print of the property from 1930, and another from 1931 by Charles E. Birge. A January 18, 1926 document from Birge outlining the project is also included. This proposal includes descriptions of materials needed, design elements, and utilities. The contract between the Huntington Free Library and Charles E. Birge for the project is also included. It is signed by George G. Heye, Edward T. Newell, Charles E. Birge, F. W. Hodge, and Gilbert Logue.
