About the collection
Iowa State College, now Iowa State University, began publishing student directories in 1901 to support student life, facilitate communication, and promote local businesses. The collection includes directories published from 1901 to 1910, offering alphabetical listings of students, their campus residences, and a variety of advertisements from Ames-area businesses that catered to the college community. These directories are essential for identifying individuals who were part of the Iowa State community over a century ago.
