Fees and Charges
The Hull History Centre is happy to provide
copies of documents and images in its care. We are aware that most
of the documents and images are unique and irreplaceable.
We will not therefore photocopy any item if we feel
the copying process would damage it, especially for
volumes, but offer our digital image service instead. We also
retain the right to not provide copies if we believe copyright
laws would be infringed or if the data protection rights of
individuals mentioned in the documents could be compromised. Due to
the possibilty of causing damage to documents during handling and
scanning, the use of portable scanners at the History Centre is
prohibited.
Copying Services
In all cases you will be asked to sign a copyright declaration form
which also serves as the order form
(PDF, 50kb) to request your copies. Some Ordnance Survey maps
and building plans are subject to specific regulations for copying.
Please ask a member of staff for details.
