Copyright Conditions

Reading Room staff will be happy to answer any queries relating to copying. Please note though, that some older or fragile materials may require specialist copying, or may even indeed be too fragile to copy. Suitability will be assessed on an individual basis.

All requests must comply with the following current copyright and data protection restrictions:

• that you have not previously been supplied with a copy of the same material by ourselves or any other librarian.
• that you will not use the copy except for research for a non-commercial purpose or private study and will not supply a copy of it to any other person.
• that to the best of your knowledge, no other person with whom you work or study has made, or intends to make, at about the same time, a request, for substantially the same material for substantially the same purpose.
• that if the copy is delivered by an electronic method, you will retain only a single paper copy and destroy any electronic copies after printing.

NB. If the declaration is false in any material particular the copy supplied by us to you will be an infringing copy and that you will be liable for infringement of copyright as if you had made it yourself.
