Telephone directories are a great source of information, both for name and address. This telephone directory covers Adelaide, its suburbs and country regions in 1938. It lists thousands of telephone numbers - arranged in a similar way to current day telephone books.

It also includes sections on telephone information (rates, accounts, time signals, directories etc.), postal and telegraph information. As well, it has quite a number of advertisements - all useful, often including names of people and places. The whole of the directory, including most of the text in the advertisements, is searchable, useful not only for finding names, but also places and other information.

The directory is a useful resource giving extra insight into the lives of those living in this period in South Australia.
