REFERENCE AND DUPLICATION
Archivists accept mail or telephone requests for easily identifiable
items and can provide copies of video footage, print material,
and photographs. Staff members can locate and copy a particular
Dole speech or series of speeches or a specific press release
or photograph. The staff cannot identify all materials on a given
topic for mail and telephone researchers.
Photocopying
and other duplication services are available for fees set by the
Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. Fees must be paid prior
to the processing of orders. Copies not picked up in person are
sent via U.S. mail when paid in advance, unless the customer requests
and pays for a different mailing service.
Returns of
copied material are not accepted, and unless staff has made an
error in completing an order, refunds are not made.
Please
Note: No photographs or scans of any archival material may be
made by patrons of the Dole Archive. Staff members will perform
all copying and duplication services.
