Special Collections and University Archives provides photocopies or digital copies of materials under its care in reasonable quantities for scholarly use. Copies are supplied with the understanding that they are intended solely for use by the applicant and may not reproduced or distributed without the prior written consent of the Head of the Department.

• Limit: 400 copies per month per researcher.
• Cost: 30 cents per page.

The Department may decline to copy materials if the copying:

• causes injury to the original item
• violates copyright law
• conflicts with written agreements with the donors of the original item

Photocopies supplied by SCUA are not an authorization to publish.

Requests for copies should be made in writing to the archivist. The applicant must submit a completed Permission to Publish form for approval by the Head of the Department before any duplicated materials may be used in a publication.

Images are scanned using a 36-bit color flatbed scanner at 100%, 600 dpi. Depending on the resulting document size, scanned images may be sent either electronically or burned to a CD-ROM.

Scans cost $15.00 each. Separate fees apply for publication.

Commercial publications: $125.00 per image
Cover art: $100.00 (academic) to $200.00 per image (commercial)

Permission will be granted only after SCUA has received a properly completed and signed permission form and after receipt of payment for any fees that may apply. Forms and additional information about permission to publish requests is available elsewhere on this website.
