Flatbed scanning is the preferred method for reproduction and will be used when material permits it. Items larger than 12 x 17" or considered fragile will be scanned with a portable scanner. If either of these methods is inappropriate, and in the case of some bound volumes, the digital camera will be used. Oversized items will be done in two or more separate scans and stitched together into a single file. The library reserves the right to refuse to copy material if it is judged that it may cause harm to the original.

All shipping and handling fees will be charged to the customer. A minimum charge of $3.00 is applied to any request to ship material. Shipping via US mail, international air mail, FedEx, UPS, and DHL is available. The customer may supply an account number for shipping other than US mail in lieu of this charge. Standard shipping will be used unless the customer specifies express or overnight delivery. Handling includes packaging costs. Delivery dates are not guaranteed.



Image requests intended for commercial use will be charged a one-time use fee of $50 per image in addition to the other costs of reproduction. This usage fee is not a copyright fee, but a fee to reproduce the image, including public domain images, from our collections. Revenue from this fee helps to support the mission of the Cartoon Research Library. Please note that certain commercial requests (advertising, greeting cards, etc.) may be referred to the Ohio State University's Trademark and Licensing Services. When this occurs, a different fee structure will apply. Contact the library for more information.



Reproductions for publication or broadcast must have written evidence of permission from the copyright owner on file at the library before images not in the public domain will be provided. If you are unsure about the copyright status of an image or need assistance in locating the copyright holder, please contact the Cartoon Research Library. You may incur a copyright fee from the owner for reproduction rights.

Detailed information on copyright guidelines is available at: Copyright Term and the Public Domain



Reproduction, publication, broadcast, exhibition or use on the web of images from the collections must include proper credit. The appropriate credit line for the materials you have selected will be provided.



ORDERS FOR TEN OR MORE NEW SCANS MUST BE PLACED AT LEAST 8 WEEKS IN ADVANCE. Orders for fewer than 10 new scans may take up to 4 weeks depending on the number of scans, resolution and manipulation requested. Turnaround time for photocopies is 5 business days. Turnaround time for pre-existing scans of images is 5 business days. Turnaround time for all other reproductions is available on request. We attempt to estimate delivery time as accurately as possible, however delivery time cannot be guaranteed.



Pre-existing scans are images that are part of the Cartoon Research Library's existing digital collection, requiring no further individual scanning necessary to complete your order. These scans are high resolution (300-600dpi) and are copied from the original digital image at 100% size. The one-time use fee may be applicable. If you request a larger size or higher resolution, a new scan will be done and research and staff service fees will apply.
