|
|
Material forming part of the above collections which, owing to its fragile character or rarity, cannot be lent to users in its original form may be reproduced by photocopying for the purpose of loans; nevertheless, except where justified by special reasons, not more than two copies may be made.

Art. 4. It is permitted to use photocopying to make copies of isolated articles contained in compilations and in newspapers and magazines, and of brief portions of other published works, with a view to supplying them, when this is considered expedient, to persons asking to borrow them for purposes of research or study, instead of lending the volume or booklets containing them.

|
|
|
