        7A.27  OTHER NECESSARY PUBLICATIONS -- WHEN NECESSARY
      TO SELL.
         Other miscellaneous documents, reports, bulletins, books, and
      booklets may be published that are needed for the use of the various
      officials and departments of state, or are of value for the
      information of the general assembly or the public, in form and number
      most useful and convenient, to be determined by the director of the
      department of administrative services.
         When such publications, paid for by public funds furnished by the
      state, contain reprints of statutes or rules, or both, they shall be
      sold and distributed at cost by the department ordering the
      publication if the cost per publication is one dollar or more, unless
      a central library or depository is established.  Such publications
      shall be obtained from the director of the department of
      administrative services on requisition by the department ordering the
      publication, and the selling price, if any, shall be determined by
      the director of the department of administrative services by dividing
      the total cost of printing, paper, distribution, and binding by the
      number printed.  The price shall be set at the nearest multiple of
      ten to the quotient thus obtained.  Distribution of such publications
      shall be made by the director gratis to public officers, purchasers
      of licenses from state departments required by statute, and
      departments.  Funds from the sale of such publications shall be
      deposited monthly in the general fund of the state, except the cost
      of distribution shall be deposited in the printing revolving fund
      established in section 8A.345.  This section does not apply to the
      printed versions of the official legal publications listed in section
      2A.5.
