Copies/scans produced by archival staff are $0.80 per page with a minimum charge of $20.00. While you are required to prepay, please do not pay in advance of being billed.
Please note that, due to limited staff time and resources, Library staff typically cannot make value judgments as to what material should or should not be copied/scanned—instead, we will copy/scan the entire contents of specific file units as identified by the researcher. If individual items (for example, a speech) are easily locatable, we can provide copies/scans of individual items in those instances.
To submit a request, fill out our Ask an Archivist form or email us at carter.library@nara.gov.
Provide specific citation information (e.g. collection, container number, file unit title) to the extent possible when making copy requests.
For audiovisual materials, please visit Fees for A/V Reproduction Services.
Additionally, researchers may make self-service copies onsite for $0.25 per page.
