Query Corner - Old phone books? UPDATE
posted: Nov. 11, 2021
Does anyone have any old Indianapolis phone books to get rid of?. We are looking for them to help preserve Broad Ripple history. They are useful for looking up old business locations and residents. We can use any, but hope to find books from the 1990s and 2000s. If you have any info, please contact us at
info@broadripplehistory.org.
UPDATE: Thanks to reader Nancy Stevens for donating a 2010 White Pages for our research library!
Also, thanks to Mike Perkins from IndyPL for reaching out to us, letting me know that IndyPL is happy to look up items in their research materials that include old phone books. We immediately put Mike to work researching the years that Kenny Rogers Roasters was in the Einstein Bagels location. It appears to be from 1993 to 1996.
