Having a contact list isn't any good if you don't add new contacts as you connect with more people. If you have someone's information handy, you can easily create a new contact for them.
You can add a new contact in Outlook’s People hub.
	- Click the People button on the Navigation Bar.
		The People hub appears in Outlook, where you can add a new contact. 
- Click the New Contact button.
		A new contact window opens.
			 
- Fill in the available information fields.
- (Optional) Click the Picture button.
- (Optional) Select Add Picture.
		
	
- (Optional) Find the contact’s picture and select it.
- (Optional) Click OK.
		
	
- Click Save & Close.
		
	
The new contact is created.
If you create a contact with the same name as another contact, the Duplicate Contact Detected dialog box appears. Choose to either add a new record or update the existing contact’s record.
Press Ctrl + N while in the People hub to create a new contact.
If you get your email through your organization's Microsoft Exchange server, you can also add contacts from the global Address Book. This is like looking someone up in a company directory.
	- Click the Address Book button.
		The Address Book window opens, showing a list of everyone on the organization's email list.
		 
- Double-click a contact.
- Click the Add to Contacts button.
		A new contact window appears, with some fields already filled in with data from the server.
			 
- Add any extra information, then click Save & Close.
		
	
A copy of the contact is saved to your personal contacts.
You can also create a new contact from within an email.
	- Right-click an email sender's name.
- Select Add to Outlook Contacts.
		A contact preview window appears.
			 
- Fill in any additional information, and then click Save & Close.
		
	
The info is saved and shows up in your contact list.
