Den är OK med "letar upp", men "slår upp" är kanske mer idiomatiskt.

"slå i telefonkatalogn" är inte något jag skulle säga, men i så fall skulle meningen lyda "Varför slår du inte i telefonkatalogen?".

Vad säger @herrsilen?

I betydelsen "Why don't you look it up in the phone book?" hade jag sagt "Varför slår du inte upp det i telefonkatalogen?" (eller ja, jag hade sagt det om vi fortfarande befann oss på 90-talet).

Jag skulle också kunna säga "Varför slår du inte i telefonkatalogen?", men det känns inte lika inriktat på resultatet. Att slå i telefonkatalogen är ju själva aktiviteten. Att slå upp något i telefonkatalogen har större fokus på målet: att hitta en specifik uppgift.

Jag tror vi är överens När det gäller ordböcker och lexikon känns "slå upp i" mest naturligt. Man kan också slå i register: "göra en slagning i bilregistret".
