Donor Restrictions

The Library holds legal agreements with some donors that require express written permission prior to duplication.  Consult Clark staff for further information.

Cameras and Scanners

Due to the current status of copyright law, the Clark prohibits the scanning or digitizing of images and text from unpublished manuscript or archival collections.  Scanning of published materials for research/personal use may be considered.  If approved, readers must complete a request form.  Readers requesting to use their own photographic or video equipment for approved copying must make an appointment and may be required to pay fees.  The use of flash equipment in the Reading Room is not permitted.

Licensing for Reproduction Requests

When the University of California Regents or the Clark Library owns the copyright, a License Agreement is required for reproduction requests.  Consult Clark staff.
