Research & Reproduction Fees
All requests for photograph reproduction must be approved by the Director of Collections and submitted to the Visual Resources Manager. Prior notice of at least two weeks should be given to allow adequate processing time. If less than two weeks notice is given, rush fees will apply. The Director of Collections or the Visual Resources Manager reserves the right to refuse any requests for duplication if it is deemed hazardous to the integrity of the negative or photograph.
The Visual Resources Manager handles all reproduction of photographic images. No images or negatives are to be removed from the building. All reproduction will be in digital format (scanned) and will be delivered in the appropriate format (email, CD, etc.). Exceptions (which will involve outsourcing the reproduction work) can be negotiated with the Director of Collections or the Visual Resources Manager. All photograph reproduction requests require pre-payment prior to delivery.
