Contacts
By default, everyone at KU can be found in the Global Address List. This means that anyone at KU can be searched for and added to a meeting or email. However, if additional information needs to be added to a KU contact or to save contact information for someone external to KU, Outlook contacts can be created. These contacts are stored within individual accounts, however, contact groups can be emailed and shared.
