WARNING CONCERNING COPYRIGHT RESTRICTIONS:
The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, USC) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under certain conditions specified in the law, archives and libraries 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 a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law.
Privacy: An individual depicted in a reproduction has privacy rights as outlined in Title 45 CFR Section 46 ("Protection of Human Subjects"). [Repository Name] reserves the right to require a release from individuals whose privacy may be violated by the publication of this image.
[Repository Name] extends the rights of privacy to include ceremonial objects and rites of cultural groups and requires the permission of that group before releasing reproductions. [Repository Name] requires the permission of a the group if images of that group will be used in a religious context.
Owner of original: In instances where [Repository Name] holds only a reproduction, the written permission of the owner of the original is required.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to obtain permission to publish reproductions from the owner of copyright (the institution, the creator of the record, the author, or his/her transferees, heirs, legatees, or literary executors). [Repository Name] will aid the applicant in contacting individuals pertaining by providing addresses, when available. However, [Repository Name] does not warranty the accuracy of that information, and shall not be responsible for any inaccurate information.
In instances where the individual or organization who may grant permission cannot be contacted, [Repository Name] may consider granting permission for reproduction based on the applicant's evidence of a good faith effort to obtain contact with the appropriate individual.

In all instances, the applicant agrees to hold [Repository Name] and its agents harmless against any and all claims arising or resulting from the use of this image and shall indemnify [Repository Name] and its agents for any and all costs and damages arising or resulting from any such unauthorized use.
Payment of a commercial use fee does not exempt the user from the credit line requirement. Failure to include a credit line or electronic watermark, or inaccurate captions or credits shall require the applicant to pay $100 per image as liquidated damages and not as a penalty in view of the difficulty of assessing actual damages for this breach.
In addition to the rental fee, a charge equal to the replacement costs will be assessed for any materials not returned within 10 weeks or in damaged condition.
Applicants may be granted permission to retain reproductions or other imagery supplied by [Repository Name] for personal or educational use. If such permission is granted (see Section 9 of this form), reproductions may not be copied, scanned, exhibited, resold, or used for any other purpose than that specified in this application.
