How to Create Contact Lists in Google Apps

The first step in creating a contact list on your machine is to go to Google Docs and click on Contacts.

This opens a window like the picture below.

If you are computer experienced, creating a contact list is no big deal. If you’re not experienced, it can be a lengthy, frustrating experience.

The only people who have any practical use for “contact lists” are those who create and distribute material for a group. This would include the clerk of session, committee chair-people, special project leaders, and a few others. And, it is something that will need to be done fairly infrequently, even for those people.

Creating a contact list falls into the category of “the Google Apps Administrator for St. Andrew can do it for you faster than he or she can explain how to do it!”

If you really need to have a contacts or contact groups, you have two options:

1. You can click on Help and learn how to do it. (In my opinion, the Help feature in Google Apps is extremely thorough.)

2. You can contact the Google Apps Administrator for Google Apps at St. Andrew and the administrator can do it for you.
