ASU featured on cover of AT&T directory
Augusta State University is featured on the cover of the 2009 AT&T Real Yellow Pages directory and on the smaller companion directory that is being distributed in communities throughout the CSRA. More than 355,000 copies of the directories have been produced for distribution in the area this year.
“We are proud to feature Augusta State University on the cover of our new AT&T Real Yellow Pages directory for the Augusta area,” says Paula Lynch, area marketing manager, AT&T Advertising Solutions. “We continually work to make our directory covers special on the outside and tailor the community information inside our directories to best meet the needs of local residents and businesses.”
As new books are delivered, Augusta-area businesses and residents are encouraged to recycle their outdated directories. AT&T Real Yellow Pages directories are recyclable, and the paper used to print the directories contains recycled materials. Residents may call the AT&T Real Yellow Pages Project ReDirectory help line, listed on the directory cover, at 800-953-4400 for directory recycling information for Augusta.
