content: A portion of Dwight's research consists of printed material, and other copies of primary source material, collected by Dwight on a variety of subjects, including individuals whose lives or work intersected with Audubon's in some way. These include Audubon's wife, Lucy Green Bakewell, John G. Bell, whose journal recounts a trip west with Audubon, naturalist and Audubon collaborator, John Bachman, and Audubon's friend and collaborator, Maria Martin. Material includes copies of journals, letters, memoirs, and other printed matter, as well as correspondence, lists and notes, and photographs of artwork. 

Also found is material relating to Audubon collectors and collections, and the publication of Audubon originals, including the Havell Edition prints for The Birds of America, and prints for The Quadrupeds of North America. 

Notes and card files include sets of index cards with research resources arranged in a variety of ways, such as alphabetical by subject of painting, or by collector, collection, library, or museum.
