Original photographs come in numerous sizes and conditions of preservation, there are various technologies with varying costs for making copies, and there may be related issues of copyright and use agreements related to making and publishing copies of photographs. Additionally, it should be noted that all photocopying damages documents physically and chemically. Researchers are urged to make a good faith effort to take notes in lieu of requesting copies.
- Photocopying is done at the discretion of CCHM.
- Due to their condition, age, or legal restrictions, some material may not be reproduced.
- Oversized materials larger than 11 by 17 inches, bound manuscripts, and rare books will not be photocopied.
- Entire published works, manuscripts, transcripts, or photographic collections will not be photocopied or reproduced.
- Cameras, hand-held scanners, or other duplication devices are not allowed in the Research Library.
- Permission to examine, request, and obtain photocopies of materials in the Research Library is not an authorization to publish them.
