Policies Regarding Permission to Publish or To Release Media

  • Patrons are required to request permission from the Archivist and Librarian for Special Collections to publish or to release media created employing the contents of Archives and Special Collections materials.
  • To the extent that it may do so, Lake Forest College will ordinarily grant one-time publication and media production rights to applicants.  In granting single-work permission to publish or to produce media, Lake Forest College does not surrender its own right to publish or to release media created from materials in its collections or to grant permission to others to publish them. 
  • If single-work, one-time permission to publish or to release media is granted, the location of the cited material must be indicated in the published work.  Please cite as: [specific] collection, Archives and Special Collections, Lake Forest College Library.
  • A copy of all publications or media works that rely heavily on the collections of Archives and Special Collection, Lake Forest College Library, should be donated to the Library upon publication or release. 
  • Lake Forest College does not assume responsibility for infringement of copyright in the material held by others.
