By-laws

To ensure the safety and wellbeing of Library users and to maintain the security of its collections, buildings and facilities, the Library Board of Victoria has the power to make by-laws.

The by-laws regulate areas of Library operations including:

• consumption of food and drink on Library premises
• size of bags that can be brought into reading rooms
• photography in reading rooms
• internet access
• conduct on Library premises.
