Photocopies of materials may be made, for a fee, in accordance with the rules and regulations of United States copyright law. Photocopies will be made by Library staff and mailed to the researcher at Historic Hudson Valley’s earliest convenience after receipt of payment. Not all materials may be photocopied, for reasons such as preservation, age, or rarity. Requests for photoduplication will be considered when such duplication can, in the staff’s judgment, be performed without injury to the document.
Permission to examine the manuscripts is not an authorization to publish, display, reproduce, perform, distribute, or prepare derivative works of them. To the extent that it may do so legally, Historic Hudson Valley will ordinarily grant publication rights for scholarly and other purposes permissible under United States copyright law upon written request by qualified applicants.
To request copies or scans of an item, contact our librarian at channan@hudsonvalley.org.
