I checked the properties on the folder, and checked the properties on the
contact list, the contact list's properties were set to none, giving no
visibility or any accessing ability. When I set the contact list's properties
to mirror the properties of the folder it was in, it was appearing as
expected, atleast in Folder list. It's still not showing the "global contact
list" in my contacts tab, but it is showing in folder list.

Actually I think I worked it out... I set the appropriate permissions on my
Public contacts folder, but when I made a 'contacts' address book in the
folder, the appropriate permissions weren't carried over.

I am curious if there is a way in Outlook 2003 to make a global contact list?
I would essentially like to create a single pool of contacts that can be
added to, but not subtracted from, by users, that would automatically become
a part of every other users main contact list. Preferably, I'd like this
"pool" of contacts to not simply be a collection of individual shared
contacts, but a list of contacts maintained at one location (i.e. a shared
folder)

My experience with Outlook is rather limited, so I'm not sure if this is a
really basic thing for Outlook or not. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.
