Reproduction and Use of Western Neighborhoods Project Photos

We want San Francisco history to be open, shared, and enjoyed by as many people as possible. We also want to make sure people who find a photo shared from OutsideLands.org can find our website to learn more about the image and see other images like it on our website. Western Neighborhoods Project provides digital access to these images for personal and educational use only. The fee we charge for providing a high-resolution file of these images helps to fund our continued digitization work. With all this in mind, here are important details on obtaining and using images from OutsideLands.org.

Requesting a High-Resolution File

If you would like to order a high-resolution, non-watermarked, TIFF copy of any image found on OutsideLands.org, send us an email by clicking the "Contact us about this image" button on any image's page. Our staff will contact you regarding payment. Prepayment is required, after which you will receive the TIFF file. Please note that high-resolution files are not available for all images on OutsideLands.org.

Reproduction Fees
(long side dimensions)
up to 2500 pixels - $20
up to 4000 pixels - $40
up to 7000 pixels - $100

Please contact us if you need larger than 7000 pixels.

Additional charges for formatting or rush orders may apply.

Downloading Directly from OutsideLands.org

Available images on OutsideLands.org have a 1,000-pixel-wide copy that can be downloaded free of charge for personal and educational use. The copies have a small watermark so more people can find and enjoy this website. If available, the download link is on the right sidebar of any image's page. Right- or Control-click on the larger file in the new window to save to your computer. When using our watermarked images, do not crop or obscure the watermark.

Using Images Found on OutsideLands.org

Western Neighborhoods Project (WNP) does not hold copyright to all of the visual materials on the OutsideLands.org website. WNP cannot grant or deny requests to publish materials for which a third-party holds copyright, and further copyright clearance may be needed in order to use an image. Users must contact the copyright holder or copyright holder's estate, rather than WNP, to request permission if the intended use will exceed fair use. Please note that WNP is unable to provide specific legal advice to individual members of the public about questions of fair use.

NOTICE WARNING CONCERNING COPYRIGHT RESTRICTIONS

The copyright law of the United States (title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material.

Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specific conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be “used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research.” If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of “fair use,” that user may be liable for copyright infringement.

This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law.
