Policy Regarding the Use of Historical Photographs

from the Collection of the

Menlo Park Historical Association

Policy

1) Personal, noncommercial use of digital images posted on the Photos page of the MPHA working web site is permitted with attribution to the Menlo Park Historical Association.

2) For any other use, including public exhibit, publication of any kind or commercial use of any of the online images, or to obtain a high resolution copy of a specific image, written permission of the Association is required for each use. For a single low impact commercial use of high resolution images, there is a simple fee of $25 per image. For a higher impact use, such as inclusion in a book, the fee will be determined by the number of images and the expected sales volume as well as the nature and purpose of the book. Note: for copies of images, the user must provide the medium—e.g., CD or thumb drive.

3) Generally, any use requires attribution to the Menlo Park Historical Association.
