	Access will be strictly limited to use within the Blainey reading room by appointment only.
	Rare and valuable works may be restricted to use under supervision only.
	Photocopying from Blainey collection material is restricted to post 1900 items which will not be likely to suffer from damage or deteriorate if copied. Please check with staff before photocopying.
