The Yellappa Reddy Papers have been divided into five series - biographical and personal; research reports; writings; projects and photographs. The series of biographical and personal includes a sub-series -- journals and notebooks -- which contain personal diaries that contain writings and notes made by Reddy.
Research reports consist of published reports such as on the Green Belt for Bangalore Development Corporation. While traditionally such material is not retained in an archive, it has been retained in the collection as it provides an insight into different persons, organisations and networks that were involved in ecological conservation in India at the time.
The photograph series consists of a single framed photograph of Reddy with former Karnataka Chief Minister Devaraj Urs.
