Where relevant and material matter offered in evidence by any party is embraced in a book, paper, or document containing other matter not material or relevant, the party must plainly designate the matter so offered. If the other matter is in such volume as would unnecessarily encumber the record, such book, paper, or document will not be received in evidence but may be marked for identification and, if properly authenticated, the relevant and material matter may be read into the record, or if the commissioner or hearing officer directs, a true copy of such matter in proper form shall be received as an exhibit and like copies delivered by the party offering the same to all parties or their attorneys appearing at the hearing who shall be afforded an opportunity to examine the entire book, paper, or document and to offer in evidence in like manner any portions thereof found to be material and relevant. Any matter contained in a report or other official document on file with the department may be offered in evidence by merely identifying the report, document, or other file containing the matter so offered.
