Access & Use
Access to the collection: | There are no general restrictions on access, though a number of boxes cannot be accessed by researchers without permission. These are noted in the finding aid. Most of those boxes contain Corporation records which are restricted for 50 years from the date of the record's creation. The collection can only be seen by prior appointment because materials are stored off-site and cannot be produced on the same day on which they are requested. |
Use of the materials: | Although Brown University has physical ownership of the collection and the materials contained therein, it does not claim literary rights. Researchers should note that compliance with copyright law is their responsibility. Researchers must determine the owners of the literary rights and obtain any necessary permissions from them. |
