The Barker Collection contains 35 linear feet of documents in addition to over 300 hundred photographs, maps, and a variety of audio-visual materials. The materials in the collection include constituent and office staff correspondence, government publications, bills, memos, and clippings. The collection is particularly strong in areas related to the budget and appropriations, education, House business and administration, taxes, and ad valorem reform. There are also a variety of materials related to alcohol laws, crime and the criminal justice system, energy, and a collection of member files. The Campaign series includes more materials than typically seen in many legislative based collections as it includes records of Barker’s contributors, contributions Barker made to other candidate, and campaign expenditures in addition to the more common campaign literature produced by Barker’s campaign and his opponents’ campaigns. The Correspondence series also contains a large volume of correspondence related to his recovery from a heart attack, the death of his father, and his election to and eventual ouster from the Oklahoma Speakership.
