Rights and Restrictions Information

Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., 20540-4730


There are no known restrictions on publication/distribution of images in the Daguerreotype Photograph Filing Series.

Access: Restricted: Served by appointment only. Digital images are available in the Prints & Photographs Online Catalog, and the image content is easier to see in the digital images than in the original daguerreotypes. As a preservation measure, the digital images are used in preference to serving originals.

Reproduction (photocopying, hand-held camera copying, photoduplication and other forms of copying allowed by "fair use"): Digital images are available. Additional copying is restricted because of the fragility of the materials.

Publication and other forms of distribution: There are no known restrictions on publication/distribution of images in the Daguerreotype Photograph Filing Series.

Credit Line: Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, [reproduction number, e.g., LC-USZ62-123456]
