perform control so that the device becomes unavailable in the closed space, in a condition that the door of the closed space is open or unlocked.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in the condition that the door of the closed space is closed or locked, the processor is further configured to:

receive a state of the door detected by a sensor provided inside or outside of the closed space.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in the condition that the door of the closed space is closed or locked, the processor is further configured to:

receive the number of persons in the closed space detected by a sensor provided inside or outside of the closed space.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine whether each of the persons in the closed space is one of the users reserving the closed space through face recognition.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor turns on the device when the device is permitted to be used.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor unlocks a box in which the device is stored when the device is permitted to be used.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor allows the device to be connected to a server or allows the device to download contents from the server when the device is permitted to be used.

9. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to:

perform control so that a device that covers a user's vision becomes available in a closed space that accommodates at least one user, in a condition that a door of the closed space is closed or locked;

acquire a number of users for which the closed space is reserved;

determine whether a number of persons in the closed space is equal to or less than the number of users for which the closed space is reserved;

in response to the number of persons in the closed space being determined to be equal to or less than the number of users for which the closed space is reserved, permit the device to be used; and

in response to the number of persons in the closed space being determined to be greater than the number of users for which the closed space is reserved, not permit the device to be used and present information, on the device, indicating that the number of persons in the closed space is greater than the number of users for which the closed space is reserved.
