    When do the new phone books come out?
    My daughter is starting a campaign for shelter rabbits. Phone books are a major stress reliever for rabbits, and perfectly okay for them to eat. Rabbits in shelters have more stress than normal, and shelters are always asking for phone books to help the rabbits in their care. Sadly most people don't know this and simply throw away their old phone books when the new ones arrive.

    So my daughter wants to start a campaign at school. But for the life of me I can't remember when the phone books come out. I know there's usually light snow, but that could mean late fall, or early spring.

    I'm in Alberta. I couldn't find any info online, and I tried very hard. All I got was links to online phone books.

    Does anyone know when the new phone books come out in Alberta, so my daughter can start her campaign, make posters, ask the principal for storage space for the phone books until the campaign is over and we deliver them to the shelter?

    We need to be prepared, so knowing when the phone books come out, is info we really need to have.

    Any help would be appreciated. Maybe someone has better Google skills than I do, because I struck out searching. Then again, I'm not the most computer savvy person.

    Thanks in advance. Oh, and spread the word. If you have a used phone book, the local shelter would love to have it if they carry bunnies. :)

    You could try this as well, it's a number to actually request one to be delivered - I'm sure they will have more info for you.

    (I found that info here, under 'faq' (I am so wanting to change that to 'facts'! ): http://request.ypg.com/en/US/Home/AddressInfo)
