From a press release Monday (Feb. 11):

The Hawaii Institute for Public Affairs (HIPA) has issued its 2013 Directory of Public Officials. And now thanks to AT&T, a web-based mobile application will allow smartphone users to download the directory for easy, on-the-go use.

“We’re proud to once again publish this directory to facilitate public participation in the legislative process,” said William Kaneko, President and CEO of HIPA. …

The directory was compiled with the assistance of federal, state and county government staffs that provided the names and contact information of all lawmakers in Hawaii. HIPA printed and will distribute 25,000 booklets; interested parties can pick up free copies at the State Capitol’s Public Access Room (Room 401) on the 4th Floor. …

The app can be downloaded by visiting www.d.hipaonline.com …
