I downloaded your image and zoomed in and set night settings. It was a bit clearer but you don't want to have to do that to go through it. Worth contacting NA and complaining about the quality?

More than a year ago I contacted Kew about a scanned diary that was virtually unreadable. I received a polite apology and was told that the diary would be re photographed. It took a while, but I was then sent a much better and more readable copy. The original was one of the many completed in soft pencil.

It is always worth a polite complaint.
