The Round Table Records, 1929-1996, consist of a scrapbook, membership information, and meeting minutes.
The scrapbook contains materials spanning the years 1931-1979. These materials include group photos of members, yearly programs, newspaper clippings, two essays and a 1976 Christmas card from Margaret Starcher, Round Table member and wife of former UND President George Starcher. The programs contain meeting schedules, membership rosters, and lists of the topics of discussion at meetings. Newspaper clippings document club elections and annual meetings with the North Dakota Dames, a sister literary club not restricted to wives of faculty. Some clippings also document personal events, such as birthdays and wedding anniversaries. The two essays were written on the occasion of the club's 20th and 50th anniversaries and describe highlights of its history.
