Are all records open? What about the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act?
All government records are covered by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and some may be restricted for general research. Other restrictions may apply to court records. Private (non-government) records may also have specific restrictions. Please phone the reference desk during regular hours to ask about the access status of particular government records (provide call number and box number). If you have more than three call numbers, please put your request in writing. If the records you are interested in are not open for routine access, staff will explain your options for access.
