Deposit of publications

Upon release of a publication, every state and county agency shall immediately deposit two paper copies, and one electronic copy in a format prescribed by the state librarian, with the state publications distribution center and one paper copy with the University of Hawaii. Additional copies of the publications shall be deposited with the publications distribution center upon request of a representative of that center so long as copies are available. The state librarian may enter into depository agreements with private and public educational, historical, or scientific institutions or other libraries, within or without the State, in order to achieve the objectives sought under this part.
