I am in the process of developing Transfer of Gift and Contract forms to be used in securing photographs for our Image Collections in the Library of the California Academy of Sciences. The intended use for images in the Collection is mainly non-profit educational and research, however, we also receive and fill requests for for-profit reproduction of our photographs. We are presently soliciting photographs for a specific project; Manzanita Project, A digital image-base of California plants and animals that will be linked to scientific information about each species and will be accessible on the World Wide Web. We would like to obtain unlimited educational/nonprofit use of photographs that we acquire for non-profit ventures such as the Manzanita Project, but allow photographers a percentage of revenue generated from for-profit reproduction of their work. We would like to develop a standard contract with a few variations for different scenarios. Does anyone from similar institutions have good examples of contracts with photographers or transfer of gift forms that you could pass on to me? Any other comments or advice on this issue would be appreciated. Thanks, Beth Ryan Image Management Librarian California Academy of Sciences Golden Gate Park San Francisco, CA 94118 ph: 415/750-7361
