RE: Legal Deposit Libraries Act



Joe, The Act to which you refer is a UK statute, ie:

LEGAL DEPOSIT LIBRARIES ACT 2003 CHAPTER 28

Any person publishing material that falls under the scope of the 
act must deposit a copy with the British Library and, upon 
request, any of the other five legal deposit libraries.

"deposit library" means any of the British Library Board and
the authorities controlling-
(a) the National Library of Scotland,
(b) the National Library of Wales,
(c) the Bodleian Library, Oxford,
(d) the University Library, Cambridge,
(e) the Library of Trinity College, Dublin;

The statute's predecessor was section 15 of the 1911
Copyright Act.
