Film Requests and Use Fees
The Special Collections Department will provide videos and films for duplication from its holdings when possible. Patrons are required to complete the "Film Request" form and the "Request to Publish or Quote" form and submit with requested films. Special Collections must be cited as the source for the footage.
After submission of the appropriate paperwork and payment, the Department will transport the film or video to the ISU Instructional Technology Center (ITC). For rush orders, an additional fee will be assessed. Acceptable forms of payment for fees payable to the Special Collections Department include checks, credit cards, ISU personal account, and ISU intramural purchase order.
When users submit film reproduction requests to the ISU Library's Special Collection Department, the following fee classifications are applied. In addition to the following processing fees, and possible extended research fees, there are film-to-video/DVD transfer costs from ISU ITC.
The processing and any extended research fees must be paid prior to Special Collections staff sending films to ISU's ITC for videotape or DVD copying. Both fees are non-refundable. In addition, proof of copyright clearance must be provided by the requester to the Special Collections Dept. and ISU ITC.
