'Mrs T. Knox / 60 Henning Cres / MANNING WA 6152 / Dear Mrs Knox / Thank you for your letter of 24 April 1986 along with copies of your / instructions for fabric wildflower classes at the Perth YWCA. / On investigation a decision has been made not to retain these as part of / the national collection. Course notes and material prepared for instructional / classes that do not appear to be formally published are not collected by / the National Library. On this basis we are thus returning them to you. / Perhaps you could contact the State Library of W.A. or your local library as these may fall within their acquisition programs. / With regard to your query about copyright, the National Library has no / responsibility towards copyright protection. Once an item has been published in Australia, copyright automatically exists and there are no / formalities to be completed such as registration or payment of fees. If / further details are required please contact the Australian Copyright / Council, 24 Alfred Street, Milsons Point, NSW 2061. / I hope we have been able to satisfy your query and wish to thank you for your interest in the national collection. / Yours sincerely / [signature 'R.Turner' handwritten in blue ink] / Rosemary Turner / Senior Selection Librarian (Australian) / for / Principal Librarian / Selection, Acquisition & Serials'.
