Conditions Governing Access

Access to the glass-plate negatives is restricted due to their fragility. Where prints of the negatives are present, the prints are open for research use. Though digitization may not be possible for every negative, researchers may make requests to digitize material according to Mudd Library's policy on digitization of photographs

Conditions Governing Use

Single photocopies may be made for research purposes. For quotations that are fair use as defined under U. S. Copyright Law, no permission to cite or publish is required. The Trustees of Princeton University hold copyright to all materials generated by Princeton University employees in the course of their work. If copyright is held by Princeton University, researchers will not need to obtain permission, complete any forms, or receive a letter to move forward with non-commercial use of materials from the Mudd Library.

Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

For preservation reasons, original analog and digital media may not be read or played back in the reading room. Users may visually inspect physical media but may not remove it from its enclosure. All analog audiovisual media must be digitized to preservation-quality standards prior to use. Audiovisual digitization requests are processed by an approved third-party vendor. Please note, the transfer time required can be as little as several weeks to as long as several months and there may be financial costs associated with the process. Requests should be directed through the Ask Us Form.

Processing Information

Collection is mostly unprocessed, with some minimal processing on numbered negatives and prints.

During a survey of the collection in September and October of 2019, all descriptive information was transcribed from material enclosures by Kimberly McCauley. The original source of these descriptions is unknown. Due to the unreliability of these transcribed descriptions, and the fragility of the materials, no extensive arrangement of the materials has been undertaken. In order to help facilitate search, some descriptions have been grouped by common theme. Any discrepencies between description and corresponding material is a result of prior descriptive work.

In some cases plates are labeled with more then one identifying number. Although these numbers do not correspond to prints within the collection, they have been noted in the items description.
