Copying by librarian or archivist of certain unpublished works

7.—(1) For the purposes of section 43 of the Act the conditions specified in paragraph (2) of this regulation are prescribed as the conditions which must be complied with in the circumstances in which that section applies when the librarian or, as the case may be, the archivist makes and supplies a copy of the whole or part of a literary, dramatic or musical work from a document in the library or archive to a person requiring the copy.

(2) The prescribed conditions are–

(a)that no copy of the whole or part of the work shall be supplied to the person requiring the same unless he has delivered to the librarian or, as the case may be, the archivist a declaration in writing, in relation to that work, substantially in accordance with Form B in Schedule 2 to these Regulations and signed in the manner therein indicated;

(b)that such person is not furnished with more than one copy of the same material; and

(c)that such person is required to pay for the copy a sum not less than the cost (including a contribution to the general expenses of the library or archive) attributable to its production.

(3) Unless the librarian or archivist is aware that the signed declaration delivered to him pursuant to paragraph (2)(a) above is false in a material particular, he may rely on it as to any matter he is required to be satisfied on under section 43 of the Act before making or supplying the copy.
