The Leo Baeck Institute is a not-for-profit research center open to the public. The vast majority of patrons who use LBI collections for private study, research, or scholarship can do so for free. There are however, two kinds of fees that LBI may charge for certain categories of use and special services: reproduction fees, and usage fees.
While obtaining copies for research purposes will only incur reproduction fees, publication or exhibition of an item from LBI collections typically involves one fee for reproduction (such as a high-resolution digital scan) and a second fee for usage.
Reproduction Fees: High resolution images or photocopies/low resolution scans can be requested for a fee. Please note that a large percentage of the collections are freely available in digital form as low resolution images already.
Usage Fees: Publication or exhibition of items from LBI holdings for commercial usage may be subject to fees.
Contact: To request a reproduction and/or permission for commercial usage of any item from the LBI collections, please contact Archivist Michael Simonson.
Time Frame: Requests will be answered typically within 10 business days. Faster service is available upon request for an additional charge.
For material that is not digitized yet, reproductions in digital or other formats (photocopy, microfilm etc.) can be requested in compliance with applicable copyright laws.
However, the following restrictions apply:
For reproduction requests received in the Reading Room of the Center for Jewish History (pursuant to CJH policy), please refer to this website: https://www.cjh.org/research/lillian-goldman-reading-room#photoduplication.
For orders received at the LBI:
In addition to reproduction fees, usage fees may apply to items from the LBI collections used for publication or display.
Are you an individual scholar, author, or non-profit organization?
Individual scholars, authors, and non-profit organizations can generally reproduce materials from LBI collections in publications without paying LBI for usage rights. However, it is your responsibility to research and clear any rights that may be held by third parties before using materials. If you require a reproduction, such as a high-resolution scan, for your publication or other use, then the charges outlined above will apply. We also request that you provide, at no cost to LBI, one complete copy of or digital access to the work in which any item from LBI collections is reproduced. Use this form to request reproductions or permission to publish materials from LBI collections.

THE COPYRIGHT LAW OF THE UNITED STATES (TITLE 17, U.S. CODE) GOVERNS THE MAKING OF PHOTOCOPIES OR OTHER REPRODUCTIONS OF COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THE LAW, LIBRARIES AND ARCHIVES ARE AUTHORIZED TO FURNISH A PHOTOCOPY OR OTHER REPRODUCTION. ONE OF THESE SPECIFIED CONDITIONS IS THAT THE PHOTOCOPY OR REPRODUCTION IS NOT TO BE “USED FOR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN PRIVATE STUDY, SCHOLARSHP, OR RESEARCH.” IF A USER MAKES A REQUEST FOR, OR LATER USES, A PHOTOCOPY OR REPRODUCTION FOR PURPOSES IN EXCESS OF “FAIR USE,” THAT USER MAY BE LIABLE FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT. THIS INSTITUTION RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO ACCEPT A COPYING ORDER IF, IN ITS JUDGEMENT, FULFILLMENT OF THE ORDER WOULD INVOLVE VIOLATION OF COPYRIGHT LAW.
