Processing Requests

In most cases, image copies will be provided as photographic copy prints. Processing of an image order will proceed upon receipt of the signed original copy of the MSHP “Letter of Agreement” and advance payment of all use fees and production charges. Please do not send this advance payment until you sign and return the “Letter of Agreement.” Please order well in advance of your need since completion dates not specifically guaranteed in writing by MSHP are only estimates.

Normal Service: 20 working days from receipt of advance payment and signed original copy of the
MSHP “Letter of Agreement.”

Rush Service: Rush service is available only at the discretion of MSHP and must be confirmed
before processing begins.

10 working days (not including shipping time) guaranteed delivery will be assessed
a 100% surcharge on the total order (i.e., double all use and production fees).

Payment: Advance payment in full is required unless special billing arrangements have been
made prior to placing the order.

Shipping: All orders are shipped by first class mail (postpaid) unless special delivery is
requested and prepaid.

Special Conditions and Fees

Reuse Fees:
All requests for reuse or change in use must be applied for in writing. Fees for subsequent printings are usually one half of the original use fee rate.

Special Fees and Exemptions:
Mackinac Associates receive a 15% discount on production fees. Reduced rates and waived use fees may be offered to related institutions and graduate students working on theses and dissertations. Rates for other uses not listed in this schedule will be quoted upon request. All fees listed are subject to change without notice.

Non-profit fee eligibility:
We are pleased to support the missions of non-profit organizations by providing reduced rates. Non-profit fees are applicable only to those organizations able to prove legal not-for-profit status by providing suitable documentation such as tax-exempt certificates or letters of identification. For-profit corporations, partnerships, private businesses, and individuals working for, or with, non-profit organizations and government agencies on projects or publications sponsored by those organizations may be eligible to receive non-profit rates with suitable letters of explanation.
