Note 1: Remote users are those researchers who do not first visit the Department of Rare Books
and Special Collections to review collections and identify items for possible
photoduplication. When researchers request materials via mail, e-mail, phone, and FAX,
Princeton staff must review collections in order to identify materials.
Note 2: Pre-payment estimates will be provided and must be signed to assure copyright
compliance. There will be a standard fee of $25.00 for photocopy requests up to 25
pages. For larger requests (over 25 pages) the cost will be calculated at $8.75 per
additional 25 pages. These estimates will be based on an approximated page count.
Rather than a per page cost, fees will be assessed according to bracketed price ranges
(e.g. 1-25 exposures/$25.00, 26-50 an additional $8.75, 51-100, an additional $17.50,
etc.). For those requesting alumni and genealogical material from the University
Archives, up to five pages will be sent gratis.
Note 3: In addition to the photoduplication and postage/handling costs, RBSC staff will
estimate preparation and assembly time for large complex orders (50+ items in multiple
locations) for photocopying, microfilming, photography and other types of
photoduplication at a rate of $35.00 per hour for up to three hours per patron per calendar
year. This fee applies to all complex photo reproduction orders listed below as well.
II. GUIDELINES FOR PHOTODUPLICATION ORDERS
- Photoduplication inquiries for RBSC collections housed in Firestone Library should be
submitted to Photoduplication Coordinator, Department of Rare Books and Special
Collections, Princeton University Library, One Washington Road, Princeton, New Jersey
08544. For those collections in the Seeley G. Mudd Manuscript Library, contact the
Public Services Archivist, 65 Olden Street, Princeton, NJ 08540 or
mudd@princeton.edu.
-
The Department reserves the right to refuse a request, or to limit(*) the amount or format of
reproduction. Entire books or boxes (or substantial portions of either) will not be
photocopied (unless otherwise authorized by curator); only microfilm reproductions may
be available.
*Maximum Order. In order to protect copyright and
RBSC control over its own materials, RBSC will not
photocopy more than 20 percent of particular
manuscript collections or record groups; and a
maximum of 250 copies for copyright-protected literary
materials. Curators responsible for the relevant
collections will continue to review requests and may
approve larger orders for microfilming. Mudd will
continue to limit orders to 1000 copies per patron per
calendar year.
-
Medieval and Islamic manuscripts are never photocopied. These items may be
photographed or microfilmed only. Fragile rare books or manuscripts may not be
reproducible. The Department will determine the specific contents of each microfilm reel.
The Princeton University Library retains all microfilm negatives. For photography,
special handling charges, custom processing fees ($35.00 per hour) and/or rush fees
($35.00 minimum) may be charged. Photographic negatives and color transparencies
remain the property of the Department.
-
Photoduplication orders must be prepaid. Payment is possible only by check, money
order, cash, or Princeton University account. A postage-and-handling charge will be
added for orders that are to be mailed. Special handling fees for oversized, unwieldy, or
particularly fragile originals may be added to any order. Reproductions of photocopies,
where the Department does not hold the original(s), are not possible, in most cases. All
orders are subject to curatorial approval and, where appropriate, a restrictions check.
