The Eleanora Davis Pim Papers consist of five linear inches of biographical material, photographs, and correspondence to family members from the time of her service in Turkey, 1962 to 1968.

The nine photographs consist of people Pim met and befriended during her stay. Most of the correspondence is from Eleanora Pim to her mother and father. Her mother died in 1963, therefore all the letters written after that time were addressed only to her father Paul Davis. The last folder contains letters to Paul Davis from relatives and friends discussing Pim's career overseas.

In Eleanora's letters she explains Turkish social customs, such as weddings and New Year's Eve parties. She also writes of her trips to different parts of Turkey, Greece, and Europe. Pim offers her views on current political situations in the United States and the Middle East, such as the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. and the 1963 attempted coup d'etat in Turkey. Most of her correspondence describes her work and social activities in Turkey and her concern for family and friends back home.
