The High Tech Gays Records collection consists primarily of monthly newsletters but also includes correspondence, flyers, photographs and other materials that document the activities of High Tech Gays, an organization for gay high technology workers in Silicon Valley in California.

The newsletters relate information about the group's social events, political activities and monthly meetings that included a potluck supper and featured a guest speaker. Many of the speakers were related to local politics, such as the the San Jose Mayoral candidates (Frank Fiscalini, Susan Hammer, Shirley Lewis) or the gay rights movement such as National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NFLTF) President Jeff Levi.

The correspondence in particular provide insight into the political activites the organization was involved with, especially their efforts to educate employers and prevent discrimination against gay people.

Photographs are mainly snapshots from monthly meetings, camping trips and parades.
