Visual Records Copying

Copying

You can print or purchase photo-realistic prints of all our visual records items that are viewable online (for private use and research only). If you are using the Reference Room, you can make black and white high-resolution laser prints of digitzed images.  If the image you want is not available online, a copy may be found in the Photo Reference Room.  The photocopier in the Photo Reference Room can be used to make copies of these copies only.  A camera can also be used to make copies of these images.  Original photographs and other images must be requested at the Retrievals Desk and can take up to 24 hours to retrieve.  Prints of images that are not online can be ordered and take 2 to 3 weeks. 

We do not hold copyrights for all the images in our collection. Third parties own copyright to some images, and some donors have placed restrictions on images they have donated. Under Canadian copyright law, we cannot release copies of these images without written permission from the copyright holder and/or the donor. You are responsible for securing all such permissions.
