This building is listed in the register of the National Estate as a building of cultural significance. The Library also owns a large storage facility at 44 Tralee Street, Hume, ACT and leases other storage facilities.

The contracted services are intended to ensure that the Library maintains compliance with relevant legislative, regulatory and safety requirements, aligned with the heritage status of the building.
