(3) Indicate in the monthly supplement if a publication has been sent to the depositories, availability, etc.

(4) Ship documents at least once a week to all full depository libraries.

(1) There will be two classes of depository libraries in Washington. These will be full and partial. Full depositories shall receive copies of all state publications for distribution by the state library.

(a) Provide space to house the publications in an approved manner with adequate provisions for expansion.
