The State Library supports and upholds the rights of copyright owners as laid down in the Copyright Act 1968. The State Library displays the mandated signs found in Schedule 1 of the Copyright Regulations 2017.

The Schedule 1 Part 1 sign is prominently displayed on or near public equipment, including photocopiers and computers, that library customers might use to copy 'works' and 'published editions'.

The Schedule 1 Part 3 sign is prominently displayed on or near all equipment such as computers and video recorders that library customers might use to copy audio-visual items.

These notices generally limit the State Library's exposure to liability under the Copyright Act 1968 for copyright infringement by users of publicly accessible copying equipment.
