Correspondence is with colleagues, friends, and family, including scattered letters from her parents and husband. Of note is correspondence with Arlene Raven about the Feminist Program at California Institute of the Arts and letters regarding the organization of a protest called "The Stars and Stripes Threaten the Peace." Two photographs depict Skiles at Syracuse University and the Creative Women's Collective, and are taken by L. E. Irvine and Barbara Williams, respectively. Printed materials include gathered material by Skiles regarding affirmative action and sexual discrimination as well as clippings and exhibition material concerning Skiles's career.

Of note are papers relating to a discrimination complaint filed by Skiles against Ramapo College, New Jersey. General writings and notes are by Skiles and often concern feminism and the art world.
