Hello Joseph,

I've been trying to get a phone book from Zacatecas and nearby 
towns.  I've been making calls to the company that publishes the 
phone books, which is "Sección Amarilla" but I've been getting 
refered from one place to another and haven't been succesful yet.

Their website (www.seccionamarilla.com.mx) allows you to lookup a 
number of any place in México but you have to enter the name of the 
person, which I suspect is not exactly what you'd like doing anyway.  
You see, these phone books are printed only for their subscribers, 
and although I'm sure that they have to print some extra copies is 
not very easy finding them.  I'm still trying, though.

I've also posted some messages in one of the Zacatecas forums asking 
for help from someone who lives there to help us get at least one 
phone book.  No answer yet.  By the way, is it Ok if I get last 
year's edition?

Victor.

Joseph,

Have you tried the following links?

www.telmex.com.mx

Also, which phonebooks, do you want specifically?
