The Yellow Pages refers to a directory of businesses, typically categorized by the type of product or service they provide. Originating in 1883, the term ‘Yellow Pages’ has become a globally recognized term, not specific to any country or region. Its name stemmed from an incident where a printer used yellow paper, instead of white. The first official directory was created by Reuben H. Donnelley in 1886. Traditionally published annually and distributed for free, the Yellow Pages has adapted over time, with a substantial online presence known as Internet^[1] Yellow Pages, or IYP. Despite this, the use of printed directories has declined due to the rise of internet search engines. The Yellow Pages are known for their ‘Walking Fingers’ logo, which is widely used but not trademarked.

In many countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and elsewhere, "Yellow Pages" (or any applicable local translations), as well as the "Walking Fingers" logo introduced in the 1970s by the Bell System–era AT&T, are registered trademarks, though the owner varies from country to country, usually being held by the main national telephone company (or a subsidiary or spinoff thereof). However, in the United States, neither the name nor the logo was registered as trademarks by AT&T, and they are freely used by several publishers.
