PUBLICATION FEES
Publication, Exhibition & Broadcast Fee Statement & Schedule for Images
Publication of images of UNL Libraries archival and special collections materials is subject to approval and fees may be charged for use. “Publication” includes: print, electronic (online or on other media), film, microfilm, or videotape. Permission to use images must be obtained in advance or in writing from the UNL Archives & Special Collections by completing the Request for Permission to Publish, Exhibit or Broadcast form.
These fees are separate from any which might be assigned or assessed by the copyright holder.
The fees listed below are for non-exclusive use of a single image unless otherwise indicated. They are assessed in addition to duplication charges (photocopy, scan, or other) and are to be paid in advance of publication. Only those images actually used in publication are subject to fees. If a request covers more than one form of publication, the fees are cumulative.
Publication fees are waived for UNL students working on their theses or dissertations.

FEES FOR THE USE OF MOVING IMAGES & SOUND RECORDINGS
Representations of moving images and sound recordings from the collections of the UNL Libraries Archives & Special Collections, or recorded of spaces and activities of the UNL Libraries, may be used by individuals and corporate entities in various ways. This schedule specifies the fees charged for such uses.
How fees are charged. No use fee is charged for personal research or enjoyment, for use by teachers or students for class instruction or assignments, or for use by Nebraska local news media. Otherwise, use of still images is charged according to fees based on COMMERCIAL or NON-COMMERCIAL characteristics, defined thus:
- NON-COMMERCIAL USE: Use by non-profit entities (proof of non-profit status, certified by the IRS, is required), public broadcasters, accredited educational institutions and their departments (including academic presses), and government entities.
- COMMERCIAL USE: Use in a profit-making venture.
Duplication and Special Access Fees. Use fees are charged in addition to any charges for access or duplication services.
Direct promotion. Any moving image or sound recording used in a product may also be used in the direct promotion of the work without requiring additional permissions or incurring additional use fees.
Multiple use "bundles." Broadcasters and publishers may choose "bundled" rates for projects containing multiple uses.
Bulk rates. Some projects may qualify for bulk rates. Contact UNL Archives & Special Collections for pricing.
Payment. Use fees must be paid or invoiced in advance of receiving use permissions and are non-refundable. Nebraska state agencies must pay through IBT. Use fees are subject to change without notice.
Waivers. UNL reserves the right to waive fees or other requirements on an individual basis at the discretion of the Chair of Digital Initiatives & Special Collections. Such waiver of fees can be made only upon approval of written application.
Duplication and Special Access Fees. Use fees are charged in addition to any charges for access or duplication services provided by the UNL Archives and Special Collections.
