Ordering Reproductions

Reproductions may be made of most types of archival material, including textual records, oversize maps and architectural drawings, microfilm, photographs, audio cassettes, films, videotapes, and some records in electronic format. Please Note: Reproduction service may be limited by donor restrictions and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Copyright Act

The Saskatchewan Archives reserves the right to refuse to provide reproductions of archival materials if the records are fragile, damaged, or the process of producing the reproduction will jeopardize their physical integrity and the Archives' ability to provide these archival materials to future patrons.

Copy orders are processed in the order in which they are received. We strive to complete orders within a three week period. However, at certain times, there may be delays in processing large copy orders.

Our current Fee Schedule describes all available reproduction and special services and states the associated fees.

Copies may be ordered by completing and submitting the appropriate request form: the Request for Textual Reproductions form, or the Request for Photograph, Audio or Moving Image Reproductions form. (Because of the unique qualities of different types of archival materials, if you are ordering both textual and photograph/audio/moving image reproductions, you will have to submit two forms.)

Patrons wishing to order digital copies of archival materials must complete, sign, and return the Digital Reproductions Agreement before staff will begin the copy order.

The Saskatchewan Archives allows patrons to use their own digital and film cameras in both reading rooms. However, if you wish to take photographs of archival materials, you must discuss the conditions of use with the Reference Archivist prior to taking any photographs.
