This collection is made up predominately of files relating to Nimz's work on various preservation projects around Kansas. Work in Lawrence features most heavily, but the collection also includes work on the Smoky Hills Air National Guard Range and projects elsewhere in Kansas and Missouri. Also in the collection is material from some of the university classes Nimz has taught and materials from archetecture and historic preservation conferences Nimz has attended.

The Dennis Enslinger papers are mostly photocopies from his research into churches in Western Kansas, the Pendergast political machine in Kansas City, Missouri, and artist and building designer, William A. Griffith. There are also materials related to historical survey projects Enslinger performed in Old West Lawrence, Kansas and Saint Joseph, Missouri, including maps, photographs and negatives.

This collection contains papers from classes on historic preservation law, taught by Paul E. Wilson through the University of Kansas Law School.
