| RIGHTS & REPRODUCTION
POLICIES |
Reproduction rights
in any medium must be obtained in writing from the Lowe Art Museum
prior to reproduction. All reproductions of objects from the Museum’s
collection are made subject to the following conditions:
Fees
Fees
- Prepayment of fees is required for all orders, which are final
and may not be returned for credit or otherwise refunded. Purchasing
reproductions for study/research purposes does not imply the right
to publish or otherwise reproduce the materials commercially or
in any other manner not authorized by the Museum. Failure to pay
the required fees for reproduction means that permission has not
been granted. Checks or money orders, made payable to the Lowe
Art Museum, must be in $US and payable within the Federal Reserve
Bank System.
- Permission is granted for a one-time, nonexclusive, nontransferable
use in a single edition of the publication or product named overleaf.
Single use is defined as a publication or product having a single
physical format, a single date of publication, and a single market.
Any change in content constitutes a separate edition. Any subsequent
or different use, including subsequent editions, editions in a
different physical format, or editions in a different language
constitutes a reuse and requires further permission and additional
fees. For film/video use, additional physical formats include
broadcast, cable, satellite, or home video use in addition to
the originally specified use.
- All negatives and transparencies remain the property of the
Museum, and must be returned immediately upon completion of the
use. The requestor must bear all expenses involved in converting
the material into the format required for the publication or product.
Failure to return a rental image by the due date will result in
additional fees as specified.
Reproduction Policies
- Permission is valid only for the individual, company, or institution
to which it is specifically issued, and may not be transferred,
assigned, sold, or otherwise disposed of without written permission
from the Museum.
- Each object must be reproduced unaltered and in its entirety.
No cropping, bleeding off the page, overprinting, printing on
color stock, digital modification, or any other alteration is
permitted without the prior written consent of the Lowe Art Museum.
- The required caption and credit line must accompany the reproduction,
either simultaneously with the image or in the section of the
work devoted to photographic credits. When a detail is used, the
word “detail” must appear in the caption with the
complete credit line. Abbreviations are not permitted.
- The Lowe Art Museum reserves the right to refuse reproduction
if in the best interest of the Museum, or to limit the number
of photographic copies, restrict the use or reproduction of rare,
fragile, or valuable objects, make special quotations for objects
that are unusually difficult to copy, and/or charge a higher copying
fee than specified.
- The publisher must provide the Museum with one complete, gratis
copy of the publication and notify the Museum of any public screening,
initial broadcast, or publication dates.
Electronic Distribution of Images
- Reproductions distributed electronically must contain the credit
line specified by the Museum as part of the image. When permission
is granted to disseminate reproductions electronically, the Museum
reserves the right to require an electronic watermark or other
identifying code within the scanned file identifying the Lowe
Art Museum as owner of the image. Distributed copies of electronic
images may not exceed a resolution of 72 dpi. If permission is
granted to publish a digitized image on a web site, a link must
be provided to the Lowe Art Museum’s web site (www.lowemuseum.org).
Copyright and Title
- The Lowe Art Museum, University of Miami may not be the owner
of all rights necessary to publish the reproduction, including
copyright and/or rights of privacy or publicity. It is, therefore,
the requestor’s responsibility to obtain any necessary permission
to publish the reproduction from parties other than the Lowe Art
Museum and to pay any associated fees. The requestor must provide
the Lowe Art Museum with written proof of such permission prior
to publication.
- The Lowe Art Museum assumes no responsibility for infringements
of copyright (Title 17, United States Code), violations of privacy
or publicity rights (Title 45 CFR Section 46, Protection of Human
Subjects), or other claims by other parties resulting from the
requestor’s use of the reproduction, and the requestor agrees
to indemnify and hold the Lowe Art Museum, University of Miami
harmless from any such claims.
- In authorizing the publication, the Lowe Art Museum retains
all rights it may own, and does not surrender its right to publish
the image or to grant permission to others to do so.
NOTICE: Warning Concerning Copyright Restrictions
The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States
Code) governs the making of photocopies and other reproductions
of copyrighted materials. Under certain conditions specified by
law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy
or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that
the photocopy or reproduction is not to be “used for any purposes
other than private study, scholarship or research.” If a user
makes a request for, or later uses a photocopy or reproduction for
purposes in excess of “fair use,” that user may be liable
for copyright infringement. The Lowe Art Museum reserves the right
to refuse to accept a reproduction order if, in its judgment, fulfillment
of the order may involve violation of copyright law.
