 (ii) the authorized officer is satisfied that a copy of the material cannot be obtained in a version or format that is required for that purpose, consistent with best practice for preserving such copyright material.
Note: If the use of the copyright material does not meet the requirements of this subsection, the authorized officer might be able to rely on subsection 113H(1) instead.
 (2) An authorized officer of a key cultural institution does not infringe copyright in copyright material (the preservation copy) by making the preservation copy available to be accessed at the key cultural institution if:

 (b) the preservation copy is in electronic form; and
 (c) the body administering the key cultural institution takes reasonable steps to ensure that a person who accesses the preservation copy at the key cultural institution does not infringe copyright in the preservation copy.
