 REPRODUCTION OPTIONS FOR  U.C. USERS  OF THE MAP & IMAGERY LABORATORY

 

MIL has two photocopiers in-house: a copier identical to the library's coin-operated machines for black and white copies of map and text materials only; and a high-end color copier for maps, texts, and non-copyrighted, print-format aerial photography that is not available in a digital file. MIL also has a large-format plotter (HP DesignJet 5000) for which appointments must be scheduled.

*Paper sizes available on copiers and printers are 8 ˝” x 11” and 11” x 17”.  *Enlargements and reductions can be made. 

*Maximum paper size for the plotter is 60”; 600dpi x 600dpi.

*MIL does not make overhead transparencies.

*Aerial photographs do not circulate from MIL. Reproduction options for the aerial photographs (only for those frames for which UC Regents hold reproduction rights) are:

    a. on-file scanned air photos: printout on MIL printers (8 ˝” x 11” and 11” x 17”); download to MIL write-able CD;

    b. hardcopy air photos (no MIL scans on file): high-end copier, $2 per frame; or bring in your own digital camera;

    c. photographic reproductions: custom reproductions may be arranged with Pacific Western Aerial Surveys.

*Maps and atlases published 50 or more years ago, or in poor condition, do not circulate outside the department. 

*Some but not all atlases in MIL’s closed-stack locations circulate, generally for 7 days.

*Faculty, graduate students and staff may borrow most maps for 1 to 3 days.

 

BLACK AND WHITE COPIES ON THE BLACK AND WHITE COPIER (MAPS AND ATLASES ONLY)

*MIL will make one free black and white copy per map from the collection, and up to 10 pages from any text within the closed-stack section of MIL. If the number of copies the patron requires exceeds MIL's limits (staff discretion is applied in these situations), the patron may check the map out to obtain additional copies on coin-operated machines.

Checkout requires a library card or a UCSB ID/access card.

Maps and atlases from inside of MIL do not circulate after 5 p.m.

*Text items from the Public Area stacks (MIL Public Area) outside MIL's doors are not copied in MIL; the patron may either check the item out at the main circulation desk or take the item to the coin-operated machines elsewhere in the library.

*See also COPYRIGHT section.

 

COLOR COPIES ON THE HIGH-END COLOR COPIER

This copier is available on a limited basis; no copies are made after 4:30pm.  You may be asked to return later to pick up copies, or you may prefer to have the copies mailed to you via campus mail or at no charge for regular postage.

Color copies of maps and aerial photographs (regardless of paper size used in the photocopier) are $2.00 per copy page.

For aerial photos, patron provides (on imagery-search sheet) information on class name, number, professor and a description of the research project for which the photograph is being used.  If photos are available in digital format the reproduction will be copied to cd or printed from the digital file;  the high-end color copier will not be used.

Sample copies of aerial photos reproduced on the high-end copier are available for review on the Ready-Reference shelf. 

 

SCANNING OF MIL MATERIALS may be arranged on a time-available basis with Tom Moon , or by telephone at 893-5122.  A scanning request form must be filled out and approved by the Dept. Head.

 

COLOR COPIES ON THE HP DESIGNJET 5000 are $9.50 per square foot.  Arrangements must be made with Tom Moon , or by telephone at 893-5122.

 

COPYRIGHT

*Copies of copyrighted materials will be made with the provisions of “fair use” (educational and research purposes) as defined by U.S. copyright law.

*MIL will not reproduce any map or aerial photograph in part or in full if the publisher has specifically prohibited reproduction, either on the item itself, or by an established agreement with the University.

*Maps published approximately 80 or more years ago are usually out of copyright.   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 as appropriate.  Black and white copies are free.  Maps will be copied in full (on multiple sheets) if not copyrighted.  The copies are made as staff time allows. 

 

OTHER OPTIONS FOR REPRODUCTION OF MIL MATERIAL (MAPS AND ATLASES ONLY)

On campus: *KINKO’s/FedEx copy center in the UCEN has a digital color copier service, for formats smaller than 11x17.

Off campus: *Commercial reproduction is available off campus; check ‘phone book yellow pages, “Copy & Duplicating Service.” 

            

MAPS AND ATLAS PAGES ARE NOT TO BE FOLDED FOR ANY REASON.

 

PAYMENT Payment may be via check or cash; checks are to be made out to UC REGENTS. Recharges are available for other departments on campus; appropriate paperwork is required.
