Use of some items may also be subject to additional restrictions imposed by the copyright owner and/or the contributing institution. Transmission, reproduction, or other use of protected items beyond that allowed by fair use under the copyright laws generally requires written permission of the copyright owners. Users must make their own assessments of rights in light of their intended use. Contributing institutions are those who make digital content available through the Montana Memory Project. These institutions may or may not own the digital and/or original materials and may or may not own the copyright to the materials. Users have an obligation to determine and satisfy any copyright or other use restrictions when copying, publishing, or otherwise distributing or using materials available through or included in the Montana Memory Project. Please contact the contributing institution for available information regarding copyright status of a particular digital item. The nature of historical archival and manuscript collections often makes it difficult to determine the copyright status of an item. Whenever possible, the contributing institutions provide available information about copyright owners and other restrictions. The contributing institutions provide this information as a service to aid users in determining the copyright status of an item. Ultimately, however, as noted above, it is the user's responsibility to use an item according to the terms governing that use.
