Policy for Reproduction of Materials in OSU Special Collections
Warning concerning copyright restrictions: The copyright law of U.S. (Title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research." If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use," that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law.
CONDITIONS FOR USE OF REPRODUCTIONS

- Materials protected by copyright may not be reproduced for publication without written permission of the copyright holder. Permission to reproduce material in which reproduction rights are reserved must be granted by signed written permission of the persons holding those rights. A copy of the signed written permission must be on file in the library prior to the duplication of the materials requested.
- Any publication, exhibition, or other public use of materials reproduced for that purpose from the collections of the Ohio State University Libraries must credit the appropriate unit of The Ohio State University Libraries.
- In requesting permission to reproduce materials from the collections of the Ohio State University Libraries as described, the requester agrees to hold harmless the Ohio State University and its Trustees, Officers, and agents either jointly or severally from any action involving infringement of the rights of any person of their heirs and descendants in common law or under statutory copyright.
- The Ohio State University Libraries reserves the right to evaluate the condition of requested material to determine the appropriate method of reproduction.
