REPRODUCTION OPTIONS FOR NON-U.C. USERS OF THE MAP AND
IMAGERY LABORATORY
The Map and Imagery Laboratory (MIL)
receives no funding for services to persons not affiliated with the University
of California, or for non-UC work done by persons who are students, faculty or
staff of the University of California. Fees have therefore been implemented to
cover the cost of staff time and of all overhead, including maintenance and
purchase of collections and equipment.
MIL accepts payment via check, cash or company
purchase order. Checks should be made
out to “Regents of the
- Copies of copyrighted materials will be made with the
provisions of “fair use” (educational and research purposes) as defined by
- MIL will not reproduce any map or
aerial photograph in part or in full if the publisher has specifically
prohibited it either on the item itself or by an established agreement with the
University.
- A signed agreement is required for reproduction of aerial
photography for which the UC Regents hold copyright or reproduction rights.
- Items
published before 1923 are usually out of copyright.
III. MAPS AND ATLASES
- Photocopies: MIL has two photocopiers
in-house: a standard copier for black and white copies of map and text
materials only, and a high-end color copier.
- Paper sizes available
are 8 ½” x 11” and 11” x 17”.
Enlargements and reductions can be made.
- MIL copiers are not able to copy
overhead-transparencies media.
- Many maps more than 50 years old are fragile
and do not circulate; copying must be done in-house on either copier, with fees
charged where appropriate; black and white copies (in reasonable amounts, as
per staff discretion) are free. Older
maps will be copied in full (on multiple sheets) if not copyrighted. Copies are made as staff time allows.
-
MAPS WILL NOT BE FOLDED IN ORDER TO FIT TO COPIER WINDOW.
BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOCOPIES
MIL will make one
free black and white copy per map from MIL’s
closed-stack collection, and up to 10 pages from any
text within the closed-stack section of MIL.
See also section on COPYRIGHT.
-
If the number of copies the patron requires exceeds MIL's
limits (staff discretion is applied in these situations), some maps may be
checked out; to do so, the patron may purchase a
library card from Access Services and check the map out, in order to obtain
additional copies on public copiers or from copy services available outside of
the library.
-
Text items from the MIL Public Area stacks outside MIL's
doors are not copied in MIL; users may either check the item out at the main
circulation desk or take the item to the coin-operated copiers located
elsewhere in the library.
The copier is available on a limited basis each day. No copies are made after 4:30 p.m. Patrons
may be asked to return later to pick up copies, or may elect to have the copies
mailed to them at no charge for regular postage. Color copies of maps (8.5”x11”;
11”x17”) are $5.00 per copy page.
- Non-UC
users must have a UCSB Library card in order to check maps out of the
department, as pursuant to the Circulation Policy for Non-UC Users. Check
out requires a library card and will follow the Circulation Policy for Non-UC
Users.
- There
is a copy center in the UCEN with a digital color copier service, for formats
11”x17” or smaller.
- Commercial reproduction is available off-campus.
