Select Avery 5161 in the Label Options at Tools | Envelopes and Labels. Then
click New Document to get a full sheet of the labels. They're set up as a
table, so make sure you have table gridlines displayed (Table | Show
Gridlines) so you can see the label boundaries.

You could set up your template in the existing table cells, but since this
would require tabbing in the table (which requires Ctrl+Tab), you might find
it more satisfactory to split the cells. If you want the last two lines to
be full width, then you could split the label vertically first, then split
the top cell horizontally. This would give you two cells stacked on top of
one cell for each label.

Save this document as a template and create a new document based on it when
you need to create your address book entry labels.

I would like to have a template for removable address book labels. So

that I
can data enter the information and when it changes, I can remove the old

one,
place a new updated label. It needs to be 1" x 4" or Avery 5161
It should be a plain label with this data:
Name: H Ph:
Address: W Ph:
Address: Cell:
City/St/Zip:
Email:
