From what I’ve seen with my mom, it really depends on the person. She used to only use the big yellow pages book, but now she checks her tablet first when she’s curious about local shops. Sites that list bellingham businesses give her way more detail than a paper book ever could — maps, photos, even reviews from people she doesn’t know but still learns from. She still likes the feel of a printed directory, but once she saw how quickly info gets outdated, she leaned toward digital. I think a lot of people 50+ are making that same slow switch.
