Special Collections Library

• Request permission from staff for any type of copying. Copying of certain materials may be prohibited because of restrictions imposed by donors, the physical condition, value of materials, or intellectual property reasons.
  
• The following types of copies can be made for charges indicated on the fee schedule.
  
  • Plain paper photocopies
  • Digital scans
  • Photographic copies
  • Copies from microfilm or microfiche
  • Audio or video dubbing
    
• Only staff members may copy Rare Books materials. Please request copies of Rare Books materials at the reference desk. Other types of loose documents, photographs, and bound volumes may be copied on self-service copiers or on the public scanning terminal. However, patrons must always request permission to make copies.
  
• Because of preservation concerns and other restrictions, we generally do not permit researchers to bring in their own scanning or audio-visual copying equipment to do copy work. However, we may permit patrons to use their own digital cameras to make copies of large format or other materials that are difficult to scan safely.
