22 Authorised officers may prohibit or restrict access to, and use of, certain Library material
An authorised officer may refuse to allow access to, or use of, an item of Library collection material or electronic Library material if the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that access or use: (a) in the case of an item of Library collection material—could result in damage to the item; or (b) would be in breach of an agreement that applies to use of the item; or (c) would contravene a direction issued under subsection 21(1) or 24.
Note: Applications may be made to the Administrative Review Tribunal for review of an authorised officer’s decision (see section 34).
