Costs of scanning
- we do not charge for items scanned under the CLA Photocopying and scanning HE licence
- items that require us to pay a separate copyright fee may incur a small charge
- where permission is required for items not covered by the CLA Photocopying and scanning HE licence, we will charge a fee to your department. This cost will vary depending on existing licence agreements, copyright permissions required and ownership of the material. Copyright clearance could take some time and also cost a great deal.
