Audio-visual Services
The objective of offering audiovisual services at the Kansas State
Historical Society is to provide patrons with quality reproductions
of materials in the Society's collections. Audio and videotape duplication
rates provide for comparable quality with the characteristics of the
original material with minimal generational degradation. All audiovisual
processes are completed in the Society's media lab when possible; contracted
work is required for some services. Duplication can be requested through
a commercial media lab; however, a Society AV collection representative
must approve the contract facility. The total charge is figured by adding
duplication fee and audio/videotape cost.

Film Transfer And Duplication

prior to sending out footage. This charge is calculated per segment
of one hour or less. Curator of Photographs must approve contract facility
