Roosevelt Research is the first resource guide to provide information on research collection for all three Roosevelts. The volume covers U.S. repositories, including the large collections at the Library of Congress, the National Archives, the FDR Library at Hyde Park, and the Theodore Roosevelt Collection at Harvard University's Houghton Library, and smaller collections throughout the country. In addition, it covers collections in Great Britain and the new Roosevelt Research Center in the Netherlands. The guide details collectons for easy access.

Part I includes U.S. entries arranged alphabetically by state, city, and name of repository. Repositories in Great Britain and the Netherlands are also covered in part I. Each entry includes an address; hours; information on which Roosevelts the collections cover; whether sources are primary or secondary; and descriptions of the types of material available. The book is fully indexed and cross-referenced.
