It also contains a quick reference telephone list for access to key personnel and major sections at the Office of Technology Services Network Services (OTS Network Services). The Listings Section contains telephone numbers for state agencies. These listings are arranged alphabetically by city and agency. Local dialing instructions can be found before the listings of each of the seven major metropolitan areas. The Reference Section contains Executive Branch elected and appointed officials, telephone numbers for Louisiana’s congressional delegation, state legislators, and a list of Louisiana colleges and universities. The Telecommunications Coordinators Section explains the responsibilities of a state agency Telecommunications Coordinator. The Louisiana State Government Telephone Directory is published by OTS Network Services (formerly the Office of Telecommunications Management) in an effort to provide an accurate, effective source of information to state agencies. The ability to provide correct information to state agencies, as well as to the general public, is directly related to the quality of telephone directory information furnished by state agencies. If corrections to any listing are necessary, please follow the procedures outlined in the Telecommunications Coordinators Section under “Directory Listings Changes.” The Louisiana State Government Telephone Directory is published on the web at www.doa.la.gov/OTS/OTM/listings/sgtd.pdf. Any suggestions or ideas for enhancements to the directory may be forwarded to the OTS Network Services Information and Training Section using the survey included in the front of the directory. For additional information about OTS Network Services, visit our web site at www.doa.la.gov/Pages/ots/Telecommunications/index.aspx. Cover Cover photograph courtesy of J. Ardoin.
