Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 21-3914, not all commercial use of public records is prohibited. The statute is violated only if the requestor intends to use the names and addresses in the records to contact those persons and solicit a sale. The term "person," for purposes of K.S.A. 21-3914, includes businesses. The Kansas Open Records Act does not require provision of records based upon a standing request or prospective request for documents not yet in existence. A request which is unreasonably burdensome need not be honored, but the public agency must cooperate with the requestor to provide access and copies, if possible.
