Photographic reproductions (prints)
Photographic prints of photographs can be ordered, but as they
must be sent out to an external photographer, the time delay is
greater and our charges are much higher (starting at $35.00, for a
8" by 10" print). We therefore recommend that you order a digital
file and specify that you want it large enough for printing in a
specific size.
Digital reproduction of documents
Limited quantities of material can be sent by email, usually as
multi-page PDF format documents. For certain types of material, up
to three pages may be sent free of charge. In other cases a minimum
fee of $5.00 applies. Additional pages will be charged at a rate of
$1.00 CAD per page for a multipage PDF document or documents. For a
larger volume of copied material, please see the "Photocopies"
option below.
Photocopies of specific documents
For copies of letter- or legal-size documents requested by a
remote researcher, paper photocopies are 30 cents per page, plus
the cost of the postage to your location. A limit of 50 pages may
apply to some collections, or there may be additional fees for the
research time required to select pages (see details in following
section). Please allow two weeks per order.
Standard-size copies made onsite by researchers are 15 cents per
page. Oversize (11 inch by 17 inch) photocopies are 50 cents per
page.
Research and document selection
Up to one hour of research and selection time can be done free
of charge. After this limit has been reached, you will be notified
that a charge of $25.00 per hour will apply for further work.
Please allow two weeks per order.
Retrieval of personal files from remote
storage
Due to the fees charged to us for retrieval of recent personal
case files (JIAS and URO), those with authorization to access these
files will be required to pay a retrieval fee of $65.00 for an
initial file and $25.00 for an additional file ordered at the same
time.
Audio or audio visual materials (digital)
For non-copyright-protected audio or audio-visual archival
material that is already available in digitally copied form, the
cost is $10.00 per digital copy of a CD-ROM and $15.00 per digital
copy of a DVD, plus from $1.50 to $5.00 for postage charges,
depending on location. We suggest that you communicate with us
first to ensure that our digital format is compatible with your
equipment.
Audio or audio visual materials (digital copies of older
formats)
The cost of copying
audio cassette
or VHS format audiovisual materials is $20.00
per hour plus $5.00 per CD-ROM or $7.00 per DVD, plus the cost of
postage (between $1.50 and $5.00 CAD, depending on
location).The cost for copying fragile
reel-to-reel tapes and audiovisual material from film
formats other than VHS is a minimum of $40.00 per
hour. At this time, audio material can be provided in
WMA or WAV format, but the greater size of WAV files may
necessitate more than one CD. Audiovisual materials are generally
copied only in compressed format. Contact us for further
details.
