Talk:directory

Where does this definition come from? The dictionaries I have looked at mention people and addresses, but don't mention organisations. 139.165.200.118 18:24, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, how about the Gale directory of publications and broadcast media, The Official museum directory, the American library directory, Research centers directory? Circeus 18:41, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Missing senses?
Chambers 1908 also has:


 * "a body of directions" (though this might be an archaic way of saying "a list of people's addresses", since "direction" once meant "address")
 * "a guide"
 * "a body of directors"
 * "the Directoire, or French Republican government of 1795-99" (presumably would be Directory with capital D)
