blue pages
Official agency numbers
Blue pages are the section of a telephone directory listing government offices and agencies, distinguished by blue-tinted paper from the white pages (residential listings) and yellow pages (business listings).
The term persists even as physical phone books have largely disappeared: I looked up the DMV number in the blue pages.
