Chris,
We have established our photo pricing based on our completely digitized
process. A patron orders an image, we scan it, and they have a choice
between printout, electronic form written to CD or delivered by email, or an
exhibition quality photograph. These latter are done by a photo company (we
FTP the digital image to them), and the price we charge is what they charge
us, plus a markup.

Here's our policies: http://www.nha.org/library/libraryuse.html

Subject: Pricing for Museum artifact photos
