The way we do it is by using a shared mysql addressbook.  Similiar to the normal
"My addressbook" configuration with public set to "true", readonly set to
"true", and admin set to my e-mail address.  This allows me, and only me, to
add/delete from that addressbook---and everyone can use it.  You can even set up
groups in the shared addressbook for everyone to use.  What this requires is
setting up another addressbook in your database (mysql for me) and adding to
sources.php.  The best part is that it works just like the normal Horde
addressbook, so it's fairly easy to use.  We currently have 4 shared addressbooks.
