The New School Office of the President laserfiche files were created by the Process Improvement Office at The New School in 2014-2015. The collection consists primarily of electronic files dating from the New School presidencies of Jonathan F. Fanton and Bob Kerrey, including remarks by New School officers and others. A large portion of the files comprise photographs from events hosted by the New School President and Board of Trustees.

This collection primarily consists of photographs of New School students, faculty, administrators, buildings, class sessions, student life, and events. While the photographs span the period between 1933 and 1984, most of the photographs are concentrated between the 1940s and the 1970s.

The School of Media Studies began as the Center for Understanding Media. Accredited through Antioch College, the program offered courses through the New School for Social Research. The New School formally absorbed Media Studies in 1975, after a four-year partnership. The records consist of curricula vitae, files, reports, syllabi, posters and other printed publicity materials, and student work.

Norell served as a visiting critic at Parsons School of Design from 1943 to 1972. The collection includes biographical material, clippings, sketches, photographs, scrapbooks, and five examples of Norell's clothing.
