Please Take Care of Our Materials

Please handle all documents with care.

Handle all documents, books, etc. with care as usage over time increases wear and tear.

When taking photographs, please don’t manipulate or distort items to get a better image. Hold your device firmly with both hands to avoid dropping it on the collection items. If your device has a hand or neck strap please use it. Sometimes taking photographs may not always be appropriate. Our Resource Centre offers a wide range of imaging services including digital images, scanned or paper copies and photographic prints.
