ALBANY, GA (WALB) – You probably get a new phone book every year, but that could change.
AT&T asked the Georgia Public Service Commission to eliminate mandatory distribution of printed phone directories in 18-communities, including Albany.
Under the proposal in cities with populations greater than 50-thousand, phone service providers would only have to deliver a phone book if a customer requested one.
