Obtaining Reproductions of Photographs or Other Graphical Materials in the Louisiana Division/City Archives
Reproduction or reuse of the photographs presented in the NOPL website
is prohibited without the permission of New Orleans Public Library.
from the New Orleans Public Library Special Collections The release form must be approved and signed by the appropriate Louisiana Division/City Archives representative in order to constitute our written permission to reproduce. We cannot release photographs until the form has been approved and signed and until our fees (see below) have been received. We ask all users to be aware that since the paperwork and the copy fees must be received by mail, we cannot fill photograph orders at very short notice. Please place orders well in advance of your project deadline.
To avoid confusion or delay, we ask that off-site users consult the archivist, by phone or e-mail (iwainwright@neworleanspubliclibrary.org; 504-596-2610), before mailing the completed form. The mailing address is:
$5.00 each -- images previously scanned at high resolution
NOTE: We cannot accept payment by credit card. Payment should be sent in the form of a check or money order payable to "New Orleans Public Library."
All of the photographs linked from Louisiana Division Photograph Collection page have been previously scanned, and high resolution .tiff versions (scanned at 300 dpi or higher) are available. Users should note, however, that some images presented in other sections of the NOPL web site -- Images of the Month and Online Exhibits, for example -- may have been scanned at low resolution, for web presentation only. Please contact the archivist for additional information before you mail the release form and payment.
Alternatively, digital copies of images can be burned to CD or DVD and sent by regular mail. Users may supply a blank CD or DVD, or we will supply CD's for a fee of $2.00.
Under most circumstances, we prefer not to send large image files by e-mail. Users who require photographic (rather than digital) reproductions or those who prefer to use the services of an individual photographer or vendor for reproduction should contact the archivist (iwainwright@neworleanspubliclibrary.org; 504-596-2610) for information on our policies and procedures.
