Hi 1akal,
Drilling further down into the GetListed.org page vzPRO linked to, you will find two sections that will help you:
https://getlisted.org/static/resources/local-citations-by-city.html
https://getlisted.org/static/resources/local-citations-by-category.html
I also recommend that you check out the Local Search Ecosystem 2013 infographic to understand the relationship between data providers:

Adam Steele wrote a very good post on US citations earlier this year:
http://www.leanmarketing.ca/lean-top-50-best-local-citation-sources-in-the-usa/
However, if you are not located in a major city, you may not find a lot of preexisting lists of things like classified, local blogs, news sites, etc., for your city. You will likely need to do your research beyond the broad data provided by resources like the ones I've linked to, above. In that event, you will need to learn how to judge the quality of a citation. There is no standardized way to do so, but I really like Darren Shaw's article on this topic:
http://www.whitespark.ca/blog/post/12-how-to-identify-quality-citation-sources
Hope these resources help you!

I've linked to a basic version of one I've built and use for my clients. It's not ALL of them but the ones listed are free. You'll still need to find directories in your local area that will help them but it's a good starting point.
You can also use a service like Yext.com for more but there is a fee to use them.
Also, here is some resources for citation building best practices. These are from getlisted.org a company owned by Moz.com:

Batch lookup domain authority on list of URL's?
I found this site the describes how to use excel to batch lookup url's using seomoz api. The only problem is the seomoz api times out and returns 1 if I try dragging the formula down the cells which leaves me copying, waiting 5 seconds and copying again. This is basically as slow as manually looking up each url. Does anyone know a workaround?

Feature Suggestions
Along with the current crawl notices (canonical links, 301s, etc) you should add "meta refresh". Those are tricky to catch via the human eye unless you are paying very close attention and they definitely effect your SEO if not done properly. Thoughts?
