"Stock photo agencies or firms such as CORBIS have compiled archives in digital format which they access when creating a multimedia product or when licensing an image to another company or individual for their personal or commercial use. Such use could include the development of a multimedia product or a more traditional purpose: for example, the creation of a scholarly report, publication or even an advertisement. More and more of these archives are including museum images. While eager to increase access to their collections by contributing their works, many museums are concerned about how best to protect their interests under these arrangements, interests such as control, integrity and fair compensation. The purpose of this document is to provide some pertinent information relating to the negotiation of an agreement involving the licensing of digitized images in a museum’s collection."
