Victory! I managed to get hold of the British Library‘s wifi contract. As of today, you will NOT find this contract, or even this FOIA request listed on the British Library’s disclosure log? Why? I’ve no idea. Why not ask the British Library!

Anyway – here is the contract. It came double-sided, so I’ve scanned in first the odd and then even pages. You can print off both documents for the full contract (though some of it has been redacted).

Service Agreement for public wireless local area service between British Library and Building Zones (BZ)
