The Dalkey Archive Press publishes Review of Contemporary Fiction, Context, and a wide range of contemporary fiction by both American and foreign writers. While the records consist primarily of editorial and production files, they also include author files, business files, correspondence, financial reports, strategic plans, and printed materials such as the Press' books, brochures, catalogs, and literary publications.
The majority of the Press' records are related to the production of books. These records include correspondence, camera-ready copies, original manuscripts, proofer corrections, proofs, and reader's reports. The type and amount of materials available differ from title to title; some titles have a full range of records from uncorrected manuscripts to page proofs, while others, particularly reprints, may only have a small corrections file. Many projects have no related correspondence; where correspondence is available, it is noted in the container list.
There are also substantial files related to the production of the Review of Contemporary Fiction and Context in the collection. The files include correspondence, general files and planning materials, manuscripts, proofs, proofer's corrections, and subscription records. The files contain both chronological and subject files related to the production of issues. Files related to the production of Context are much smaller in size, but there are correspondence, manuscripts, proofs, and proofer's corrections related to its publication in the collection.
The Press routinely filed correspondence in context with related projects rather than maintaining a separate set of correspondence files. There is some additional correspondence filed in Series I: Author Files and general correspondence and unfiled author correspondence has been arranged in Series VI: Correspondence.
The collection lacks both administrative and business records. There is no distinct set of business files of records related to John O'Brien, the founder of Dalkey Archive Press, in the records. The records do include a few of O'Brien's correspondence files, particularly relating to Gilbert Sorrentino. The collection also contains a set of his teaching files from Benedictine University and a few manuscripts relating to Gilbert Sorrentino, but these files are not related to O'Brien's work at Dalkey Archive Press. In addition, there no board records in the collection. The other business records in the collection are also incomplete, and the overall volume of such material in the collection is small. Series V: Business Files does include financial reports, distribution, and sales reports, but few tax records or audited financial statements, as well as records related to consultants, development, fundraising, grants, publicity, and strategic planning.
There is very little audiovisual material in the collection. There are a few photograph files in Series IX: Audiovisual Materials, as well as a few other photographs in other files scattered throughout the collection. In addition, there are several audiocassettes in the collection. Several are related to authors published by the Dalkey Archive Press, but it is unclear if the audiocassettes' content is related to the Press' work. There are also three audiocassettes that contain broadcasts related to new published works, and these are filed with the publicity materials in Series V: Business Files.
Terminology, particularly for production material, was standardized using the Rare Book & Manuscript Section (RBMS): Printing and Publishing Terms: A Thesaurus for Use in Rare Book and Special Collections Cataloging and the Art and Architecture Thesaurus (AAT) where possible; additional dictionaries of printing and publishing terms and the Press' own terminology were used to fill in gaps in these standards. Researchers should particularly note that in standard thesauri the use of term page proof is preferred to the American usage of the term galley proof; where the Press uses the term galley (as it does for uncorrected bound proofs that are cut into pages) it is noted in the container list in parentheses.
The records of the Dalkey Archive Press have been split between two repositories. Although there are some records from 1990 and earlier in this collection, the majority of records from 1980-1990 are in the Review of Contemporary Fiction/Dalkey Archive Press: records, 1980-1990, at Stanford University.
This collection is arranged into ten series and several subseries.

Dalkey Archive Press publishes and promotes contemporary fiction that is commonly described as avant-garde, experimental, innovative, and highly literary. The Press seeks to publish materials that challenge both readers and literary conventions. Among the authors published by the Dalkey Archive Press are Djuna Barnes, Robert Coover, David Markson, Carole Maso, Nicholas Mosley, Flann O'Brien, Gilbert Sorrentino, Gertrude Stein, and Louis Zukovsky. The Press's objective is to keep all of its books in print in the interest of maintaining the availability of works that it deems culturally and educationally valuable, regardless of their commercial viability.
The Review of Contemporary Fiction was founded in 1981 to provide a forum for the discussion of significant contemporary authors whose work was largely neglected in mainstream circles. The Review has developed into a primary English-language source for the discussion of serious contemporary fiction and serves to introduce readers to writers and new works through in-depth criticism, book reviews, and coverage that is not available through most commercial media sources.
Dalkey Archive Press was founded in 1984 to address problems exposed by the Review of Contemporary Fiction. In particular, it was noted that works discussed in the journal were going out of print and difficult to get published by commercial publishers. In addition, there was concern regarding the decrease in the amount of foreign-language works being translated into English. Initially, the Press focused on reprinting out of print works that had been featured in the Review of Contemporary Fiction, but within a few years it expanded to include the publication of original works that were considered to be too risky for commercial publishers.
In 1999, Dalkey Archive Press began publishing a free newsprint and web magazine, Context. Context aims to create an understanding of the literary, historical, and cultural contexts in which to read modern and contemporary literature, especially for students and younger readers of contemporary literature.
The Press received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Book Critics Circle in 2011, and its authors and translators have been recipients of awards including the Nobel Prize, the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize, and the Helen and Kurt Wolff Translator's Prize.
This series consists of Steven Moore's alphabetical files on authors. The files function as both correspondence and subject files and relate to the production of both books and Review of Contemporary Fiction. The files include clippings, correspondence, obituaries, reviews, articles and manuscripts (both corrected and uncorrected), photographs, and other materials relating to book awards, contract discussions, editorial work, exhibitions, events, permissions, proposals, publishing projects, rights, and translation.
There are a few cross-references in these files to files maintained by Chad Post, but Post's files were not received with the collection.

This series consists of editorial files related to book production. The files include correspondence, camera-ready copies, original manuscripts, proofer corrections, proofs, and reader's reports. The types of records available differ from title to title. Most of the production material is related to books that were ultimately published by Dalkey Archive Press. There are corrections, correspondence, manuscripts, or reader's reports available for a few works that were not published by Dalkey Archive Press; these works either remain unpublished or were ultimately published by another publisher.
The production records are filed and arranged by author, title, and then roughly by production date. The Press itself maintained records loosely by production year, but these records were unfoldered, undated, and in no definite order. In addition, production records related to one title were not always kept together if work went on over multiple production periods. This being the case, the files are arranged in rough order by type - manuscripts, corrections, and page proofs - which reflects a rough rather than a definite progression of the production work. The Press kept cover letters and related correspondence with the production files, and the presence of correspondence is noted in the container list. Where materials are undated, dates were approximated using dated production materials for the same title or the publication date.
Copies of published books can be found in Series VIII: Library.

Series IX contains a small number of photographs and audio cassettes. The photographs are primarily related to the University of Illinois. Many of the persons in these photographs are wearing nametags and can be identified in the photographs. The cassettes were not listened to during processing. While these are related to authors published by the Dalkey Archive Press, it is unclear if the content is related to the Press' work. Cassettes related to publicity are filed with Series V: Business Files.
