This collection contains materials largely produced for members of the Grolier Club. It includes announcements for events (meetings, annual meetings, and exhibitions), lists of events held yearly, publications for sale by the Grolier Club, keepsake booklets for members, correspondence, and exhibition catalogs. Lawrence Clark Powell's club membership invitation is also included. Items range in date from 1893 to 1999, but the majority of the collection ranges from the 1940s to 1960s.

Four printed announcements which were not keepsakes of the Grolier Club were removed from box 1 and moved to a folder in the Fine Press Ephemera Collection (Press Coll. Ephemera). The folder is titled "Items from the Grolier Club Collection." This includes a Roxburghe Club meeting invitation, an American Institute of the Graphic Arts exhibition announcement, a 1961 yearly events list for the Bibliographical Society (London), and a list of publications from 1892 to 1948 of the Rowfant Club.
