In May 2018, Hope College students Sarah Lundy and Michaela Stock, along with Dr. Natalie Dykstra, Professor of English, spent two weeks doing original, archival research at the American Library in Paris (ALP). This was a pilot project in order to develop a relationship between these institutions and enable future undergraduate students studying the humanities, particularly English, French, Art History, and history, to continue research of their own in the library’s archives. The following year, Hope students Hannah Jones and Aine O’Connor joined Dr. Dykstra, and the relationship between Hope and the ALP deepened even more. Kelly Jacobsma, the Dean of Van Wylen Library at Hope College, also joined in year two, providing invaluable research and archival expertise.
