Restrictions upon certain collections prohibit some uses. Archives staff will provide advice on request. Any proposal that involves reproduction of a City of Vancouver photograph not covered in the schedule of fees must be made in writing to the City Archivist. The letter should include a description of the project, whom it is for and identification of the photographs to be used. If approved, use fees or restrictions will be quoted prior to the agreement being prepared.
Fees vary depending on use.
An additional fee may be charged for re-use. However, reproductions distributed electronically must contain the credit or caption as part of the image . When known, the photographer should be credited. Crediting of each individual item is mandatory in all cases. With films, filmstrips, slide presentations and video productions, credit must appear with other credits at the beginning or end of the production.
