The usefulness of the collection visually also extends to numerous commercial and public relations applications. Commercial use is defined as any photography performed or used by a for-profit enterprise, or in any profit making venture, for the purposes of creating, illustrating, advertising, marketing or commemorating a product. Individuals ordering photographs must reveal their intended use of the images on this form. Also a publication fee is charged for one-time use of an image. No fees charged.
Payment is required in advance of filling any photography order.
Regardless of whether a publication fee is assessed, permission must be granted in writing by the BCHS prior to publications of any image from the BCHS collections. The ordering of photographs and the payment of service fees as described on the form DOES NOT convey permission to publish. Separate application must be made for publication rights. Where images are to be published, the Bucks County Historical Society must be acknowledged as the source. A copy of any publication using images from the Historical Society collections is to be donated to the Spruance Library.
