Manuscripts and Archives will reproduce collection materials, in compliance with donor stipulations and with the fair use clause of the United States copyright law, when such reproduction can be done without injury to individual items. All reproductions (of whatever nature) are provided for individual scholarly use. The department reserves the right to request the return of reproductions, to prohibit the making of further reproductions from those furnished by the department, and to refuse the placement of copies of our collection materials in the holdings of another institution or individual.

The choice of reproduction medium is that of the researcher. However, we reserve the right to select the reproduction process based on the physical condition, size, type, and quantity of the material and the availability of staff resources. The staff of Manuscripts and Archives, or its contracted vendors, normally provides these copying services.
