Mdhs Permission Fees

If you would like to order a reproduction of a photograph from the MdHS Library Special Collections Division and you know that the photo exists, you must first confirm the photograph's reference number and title before ordering a copy.

If you would like a reproduction of a photograph, but you cannot find the photograph on the MdHS website, research must be done.

  • Contact the Library Special Collections Division at (410) 685-3750, ext. 328.
  • If the Library Special Collections Division determines that the photo exists, they may be able to e-mail or fax you a copy of the image for your confirmation prior to your placing an order.
  • If you cannot visit the library to research the photograph, a library staff member will perform the research for a fee of $40 per hour/members and $50/hour for non-members. Contact the Library Special Collections Division at (410) 685-3750, ext. 328.

If you would like to order a photo of an object (painting, drawing, silver, ceramics, etc.) from the MdHS collection, contact registrar's department at (410) 685-3750, ext. 313 and determine the object's accession number and title.

  • To view the object, you must set up an appointment with the registrar's department at (410) 685-3750, ext. 314.
  • Please note that these procedures necessarily take time. It may take up to six weeks to have an object from the Museum's collection photographed.
  • If the MdHS already has a photograph of the object you have requested, it still may take up to three weeks to process a copy.

Once you have determined that the MdHS owns an image of which you would like to order a copy, or there is an object in the MdHS collection you would like to have photographed, please contact the Imaging Services Department to obtain an order form.
