Saving and Updating Contact Information 647


Custom Address Books
You can create additional address books; for example, you might want to keep contact infor-
mation for family and friends in an address book separate from client contact information, or
you might maintain an address book for team members working on a specific project.
You create an address book by creating a folder and specifying that the folder will
contain contact items.

An address book is a folder designed specifically to contain contact records and contact groups.

When you display the Folder List in the Navigation Pane, your custom address books
appear along with other folders you create, and you can organize them in the same
manner—for example, at the same level as your Inbox, as a subfolder of the Contacts
address book, or inside a project folder. All address books are available from the My
Contacts list in the Navigation Pane of the Contacts module.
Tip If your organization stores contact information in a SharePoint Contacts List, you can
import the list contents from SharePoint into Outlook as an address book.
