The ANU is changing its telephone numbering scheme from 1 January 2001. The telephone system will be unavailable for use 9am - 5pm from 27 December through to and including 29 December while the changes are being made, except for emergency calls. The following information explains how the numbering change will affect callers to the ANU Acton and Mt Stromlo campuses, as well as how internal call procedures will change. Incoming calls to each of these Halls and Colleges will NOT be affected. If your telephone extension or fax is included in these ranges, your numbers WILL be affected.
All numbers are inclusive.
This redirection will be in place for a period of six months, ending on 30 June, 2001. You should advise any regular contacts of these new dialling procedures. Do not forget to advise about fax number changes. To call an extension internally on the Acton and Mt Stromlo campuses, dial 5 then the 4 digits you have used in the past. For example, to call the telephone helpdesk, dial 52440 .
