Generally we get
requests for use of our images in reproductions for scholarly
use, press, and occassional commercial use. We are getting
requests for transparency loans and the like for 'personal use' where people say
they want to make reproductions for their homes.
Assuming copyright
is not an issue (eg items are in public domain), we still need to send a
transparency, subject it to wear and tear, and deal with administration of
tracking and return.
Do any of you have
policies or practices addressing this kind of personal use? I'd rather not
do it as its not really key to our mission and takes up time but am curious
about reactions to making that the administrative basis. Reply on or
off line as you like. Thanks.
