Library Service Charges
Service One: Photocopying Charges
The charges for photocopying are 25p per A4 page, and 35p per A3 page. A4 colour copying is available at £1.00 per page.
Oversize maps and technical drawings can be copied, but these are taken to an external copyist so individual charges will apply depending on the number of items to be copied. Please ask a member of the Curatorial team for more information
** Please note that in some instances it may not be possible to copy some documents due to their fragile nature, although it may be possible to provide scans where the scanning process will not cause further deterioration.
Service Two: Cameras
A charge applies for the use of digital cameras in the Reading Room.
The charge is £10.00 for a whole day, where there is no limit on the number of images taken or 50p per frame if only a small amount of images are to be taken.
Researchers will be asked at the beginning of their researching session whether they will be using a digital camera and which option they would like to choose.
Service Three: Charges for prints
We offer two sizes for photographic prints 6 x 4 and 7 x 5 with the price as follows:
£10.00 for the first 10 images and 50p per image after that.
If you are ordering less than 10 images we can provide individual costs. Please ask a member of the Curatorial team for more information.
We can also provide individual prices for larger prints on request.
Service Four: Charges for images on CD
The charge for images on CD is £8.50 for the first image (which covers postage and CD) and £4.50 for each image requested after that. The price includes VAT. All files are supplied in JPEG format.
Service Five: Reproduction Charges
A reproduction fee of £25.00 is applicable where any image is used for commercial purpose, i.e. use in an exhibition, use in a TV programme or book publication.
Service Six: Charge for manipulation of image
Requests for further editing of images supplied for commercial reasons will incur an additional charge. This charge will be established on an individual basis and will be based on the amount of extra work to be undertaken.
Service Seven: Postage
We charge a standard £2.50 in the Reading Room. If the material being sent out will cost more than that to send, we will quote an individual price.
