Copying of books and manuscripts
The provision of new overhead digitial scanning equipment has enabled us to improve our copying service. We are able to copy most books and manuscripts up to A2 size, using digital equipment, providing a range of copy qualities and either paper or electronic output. Items which we cannot copy in-house may still be copied by other means, but prices and timescales will be individually quoted.
Researchers are not permitted to make personal copies of rare books or manuscripts, except by digital photography where prior permission has been obtained.
All copying is undertaken at the discretion of the Head of Special Collections or the Keeper of Rare Books, and is subject to the restrictions imposed by copyright, donor restrictions, and physical condition.
Fees
Our basic charge for standard black and white copying is 30p per page (A4 or A3).
