Sec. 4. (a) Notwithstanding section 2 of this chapter, a state educational institution may deny a member of the general assembly or staff of the legislative services agency access to a research tool if the research tool was purchased through a grant or other source that limits access to use of the research tool in a way that would make granting access to the research tool a violation of the grant or agreement covering the payment for the research tool.

     (b) Nothing in this chapter requires a state educational institution to expend additional funds or to violate the terms of a subscription agreement applicable to a journal or other research tool.
