Rights and Reproductions
Many of the documents, photographs, images, films, videos, and audio materials in Archives Center collections may be reproduced. Availability for reproduction is determined by the following considerations:
Permission
- A duplication application must be completed and submitted to the Archives Center for review and approval.
Copyright, Trademark, and other Intellectual Property Rights
The Smithsonian Institution does not hold copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights for most of the materials in the Archives Center’s collections. Intellectual property rights including copyright, right to publicity, and right to privacy may need to be cleared before the Archives Center can make copies available. The user must provide the Archives Center with written permission from the owner of the rights before copies will be produced.
Condition
Archives Center allows duplication only of collections materials that are in stable condition. The staff will not duplicate items that are too fragile or may be damaged by the duplication process.
