Donors and owners of material on loan to the Institute may have imposed certain restrictions on accessing, copying, and publishing these collections or parts of collections, including a requirement for expressly requesting permission from the donor or owner. Restricted access to archives may also be necessary to protect the privacy of individuals or because of the physical condition of the material in question.
To find out if access to a collection is limited, see the archive description page in our online catalogue.
If you wish to consult a collection in the Reading Room, please read our rules first.
