----------------------------Original message---------------------------- To all colleagues, From 10 October 1995 onwards alle telephonenumbers in the Netherlands will consist of 10 digits. For the big town areas this will have no influence (e.g. my office number remains 070-3140241), but areas with a 5 digit area-number will have a change in area number and in call number. (e.g. 05488-2378 becomes 0548-682378) For the first six months following this date you can call either the new or the old number. Beginning on 10 April 1996 only the new numbers will be in use. If you like to find out more about the changes you can call +06-0096 (toll free) of PPT Telecom Netherlands. They'll send you a free brochure. Thank you for your attention, Jan Smits Map Curator Royal Library, National Library of The Netherlands [log in to unmask]
