Verizon Links to Goddard

For your convenience, a link has been established to Verizon SuperPages.com from the Goddard internal web-site. Verizon SuperPages.com provides customers with an on-line national directory of business and personal telephone and address information. To access this feature, select the Phonebook option from the GSFC internal homepage then select Verizon Superpages from the External References area. For direct access to this feature, select: http://www.superpages.com/

By providing access to an on-line telephone directory, we hope to reduce the number of hard copy telephone directories that are required for distribution to Center employees. If your office still requires a hard copy local area telephone directory, please email Beth Booker at ebooker@pop200.gsfc.nasa.gov.
