RIGHTS
All rights to the reproduction of images in the Digital Scriptorium website are retained by the individual holding institutions; please be sure to obtain name and contact information for each institution. The contact person will inform you of photographic options and costs, which may differ from institution to institution.
LINKS
The Digital Scriptorium appreciates links in your own web pages to our site in the form of a link to our introductory page (http://scriptorium.columbia.edu), and thus to the Digital Scriptorium in its entirety. As a courtesy, please let us know that you have done this and give us the URL to your own site.
PAPER COPIES
You are welcome to print from our website any specific bibliographic description or image of a manuscript (see below on Downloading and Printing Methods) for personal study or research. When material is downloaded, be sure to cite its source (see below on Citation Format). We discourage the copying of entire sections of the website, whether bibliographic or iconographic.
ELECTRONIC ARCHIVES
Again, we encourage this activity only for single descriptions or images and only for the purpose of personal study, whether your copy is being saved to your personal computer's memory or to a disk of any form, a CD-ROM or DVD. Please see below on Citation Format.
NETWORK DISTRIBUTION
Please do not distrbute material from the Digital Scriptorium web sit over any network, including a local area network.
MODIFICATION OF THE MATERIAL
In the interests of scholarship and in order to assure authenticity of the information, we expressly request that no text or image from the Digital Scriptorium be modified in any way.
RE-PUBLICATION
We would like to remind people that it is inappropriate to link to any one section of the website, or to embed a portion from our site internal to your own, since this obscures the nature of our web publication. If you have educational reasons, nevertheless, to need to do so, please contact us.
EDUCATIONAL USE
If you are planning to use Digital Scriptorium in your classroom teaching, please do so in compliance with the restrictions noted above, with this further extension: 20 is the maximum number of single paper copies of any section of the database, text or images, with the understanding that this is for classroom use only.
In addition, please tell us about your class and its use of the database: one of our goals is to encourage the study of medieval manuscripts, and we may be able to facilitate your classroom use; at the same time, your response can help us to plan new means of access or types of material.
We accept under the rubric of "educational use" the use of single or a limited number of images in the course of a lecture, whether in a classroom to students, or in a conference to peers (see below on Incorporating Images in PowerPoint). The Digital Scriptorium website must be cited as the source (see below for Citation Format). Again, we would appreciate knowing when and how the database is being used.
CITATION FORMAT
When using text or images from Digital Scriptorium, please cite the manuscripts by city, institution if appropriate, repository, and full call number as shown in this website (which will reflect the holding institution's own choice of format). In addition, citations must include the URL of Digital Scriptorium itself, "http://scriptorium.columbia.edu."
COMMERCIAL USE
Commercial use of Digital Scriptorium or any of its component parts is forbidden; the individual holding institutions must be contacted if you wish to duplicate material for such purposes.
