Special Collections & Archives: Duplication & Use Fees

Overview

You will need to submit our Duplication Request Form to order reproductions of photographs, oral histories, music recordings and film or video. Duplication fees apply for any use other than EKU class projects or EKU office use. Some material may not be available for copying due to restrictions. 

 

All reproductions are sold for personal/reference use only, and may not be displayed, published or broadcast in any format without payment of appropriate use fees. All responsibility for questions of copyright that may arise in copying and in use of the copies must be assumed by the user.

 

Payment can be made with check, or the patron can request to make an electronic payment. More information will be provided to the patron if they request an electronic payment method. 

 

All checks should be made payable to Eastern Kentucky University and should be mailed to:
