The Research and Notes subseries is arranged by subject and contains Inglis' writings, work, and research on various individuals, groups, and events. The most common types of materials found in these papers are pages of bibliographical information which provide references to the subjects in various books and journals. These notes also frequently contain biographical and historical information Inglis knew or discovered about the subjects documented. Among others, the folders for Voltairine de Cleyre, Labor and Radical Press, Pierre J. Proudhon, Benjamin Tucker, and Victor Yarros provide extensive citations. This series also contains the products of Inglis' own historical research, most notably on John Francis Bray, Josiah Warren, and the Deportation of Detroit Anarchists during and after World War I. Papers of this sort include unpublished essays, extensive bibliographic work, and other topical resources she compiled. Also of interest are the six folders of material on Labor Spies Inglis either wrote or compiled, which shed light on the sometimes clandestine tactics of businesses attempting to undermine labor organizing. "Social Conditions Reports" were written by Inglis when she worked as a State Inspector of working women's conditions and they provide a picture of the lives of working class folks and a critique of many of the situations Inglis encountered. Finally, six folders of documents on the Labadie Collection give insight into the history of the library where Inglis centered her life's work.
