The bulk of this grouping consists of Printed Material, including newspaper and magazine clippings, comic books, pamphlets, scholarly papers, monographs, and serials.
In addition, a Subject Files subgrouping mainly comprises materials related to events following the 1973 coup and the response of key actors in the United States, including the nascent NGO community (including the first iteration of WOLA), members of the U.S. Congress, and various church organizations. The Ahern files contain some ephemera relating to Fidel Castro, assassinated president Salvador Allende's political campaign, and U.S.-based movements supporting Chileans persecuted under the Pinochet regime.
