Photograph Reproduction Policies | Photograph Reproduction Prices | Mailing Charges
Scans | Payment and Delivery | Submitting a Request
1. Reprints of images from our collections are available. All reproductions are digital. Prints are made using Epson Premium Photo Paper. Price is dependent on type of print and size (see below).
2. Because use fees are a major source of income for preserving our collections, photograph
reproductions are subject to this fee, which may be negotiable. Each additional or
alternate use of the image(s) requires new negotiation of rights and payment of an
additional use fee. For more on our use policy, please see our use fee page.
3. Photo duplicates can be mailed for a minimum of $7.00 per shipment.
4. We can often expedite orders for a rush fee. Rush fees are double the total amount
of the reproduction. Commercial use fees and outsourcing fees are not included in
the doubled amount. For more about our fee schedule and turn around time for photographic
orders, please see below.
5. You, the user, are responsible for conforming to the laws governing copyright and
libel. While some of our material is out of copyright protection, we still retain
property rights to those items. Please keep in mind that we do not hold copyright
to everything in our repository. If you should select an image for which we do not
hold copyright or property rights, we will make every effort to direct you to the
right party.
6. Please note: Any formal agreements entered into with commercial users (including but
not limited to television producers or directors and book publishers) must be sent
to us in a timely manner as they will need to be routed first through our university
attorney's office.
