We appreciate all the interest we have received in the West Lafayette Memories project since the Journal and Courier article on Oct. 26. Just a reminder about contacting us- our email is wlhistory@purdue.edu. Abby Stephens, West Lafayette Research Assistant has office hours each week on Tuesdays from 10-11:30 AM and Thursdays from 1-2:30 PM at New Chauncey Housing Inc. (227 Littleton St.) and on Wednesday from 5-6 PM at the West Lafayette Public Library. Please feel free to schedule an appointment if these times don't work for you by emailing wlhistory@purdue.edu or calling the West Lafayette Public Library at 765-743-2261 with your contact information. I am more than willing to meet at any locations in the West Lafayette community that are more convenient for you; in keeping with the project, if these locations involve food- all the better!

WEST LAFAYETTE'S HISTORY began in the early 19th Century yet much of the town - now city's - history remains untold. Residents current and former are both welcome to contribute to this blog and to the Library's collection of West Lafayette Memories.
I received a call today from a resident who has collected matchbooks from WL restaurants over the years!
