If a memorandum or record is admitted into evidence under the hearsay exception for past recollection recorded created by Federal Rule of Evidence 803(5), the contents of the memorandum or record may be read aloud to a jury but the memorandum or record itself cannot be given to the jury. However, the memorandum or record can be treated as an ordinary exhibit and may be given to the jury if the opposing party unless an adverse party requests offers the memorandum or record.
