The public database mentioned in article L. 134-2 is called the “Register of unavailable books of the 20th century”. It is open to public consultation via the Bibliothèque nationale de France’s online public access service. A new list of unavailable books is added on 21 March each year, if that is a working day, or on the first working day thereafter. The list of unavailable books is drawn up by…

The application for withdrawal provided for in the second paragraph of article L. 134-6 must be made to the collective management organisation mentioned in article L. 134-3.

When the right provided for in I of article L. 134-3 is withdrawn, the organisation shall inform the Bibliothèque nationale de France, which shall enter a reference to this withdrawal in the public database provided for in article L. 134-2.
