Bethesda, MD - February 1, 2008 - Today, Carroll Publishing, the most trusted name in government contact information for over 35 years, launches its newest product, GovSearchLocal.

This online searchable database offers comprehensive and current government contact information for key officials at the state, city and county levels, including all three branches of government - executive, legislative and judicial. Additional content includes: federal government offices located within a state, annual expenditures, monthly payroll figures and numbers of employees.

Carroll Publishing leads the market in providing efficient and versatile access to local government contact information in a centralized, online database. An online service, unlike print directories, offers two main advantages. The information is updated on a daily basis and the data is adaptable. Users can perform a multitude of functions within the database, such as building and downloading unlimited contact lists, creating dynamic organization charts and performing targeted searches by person, position, office, facility or congressional district.

"Today is an exciting day for us," notes Thomas Carroll, President of Carroll Publishing. "We are successfully delivering a service that features the right breadth of local government content to meet our potential customers' needs and budgets." He further adds, "Instead of having to subscribe to a national service to obtain what they need for a single state, GovSearchLocal focuses on one selected state, or any number of additional states, at a very reasonable cost. Users value the ability to select only what is most important to them."

GovSearchLocal is available for purchase through Carroll Publishing's website at www.carrollpub.com/gslocal_State.asp.
