Biographical / Historical

The Ball State University Directory, also known as the B-Book, was a directory listing the addresses, telephone numbers, and office numbers for Ball State students, faculty, and staff for a given academic year. The early B-Books also served as a student handbook containing important administrative information, student organizations, religious organizations, and advertisements for local businesses.
