Copyright and permissions

The State Library of South Australia has endeavoured to ascertain the copyright holders of material digitised from the Bradman Scrapbooks, and has written to them by letter, fax or email seeking permission to reproduce. Where replies were not received, or where the copyright owner is not shown or has not been able to be traced, the Library has decided in good faith to proceed with digitisation and publication.

The State Library of South Australia Library does not commercially benefit from this reproduction of material in the Scrapbooks, which have been publicly available for many years, and trusts that people associated with the digitised items will support the Library's commitment to making this important collection of Bradman memorabilia more accessible to cricket lovers around the world.

The Library will be happy to hear from copyright owners or others who can advise on details of creators of artistic or written works where these have not been able to be identified, and will update those records accordingly. Should copyright owners object to this usage of their material on this website, the Library will, with apologies, delete those images if necessary.

The Library acknowledges the assistance of the Australian Copyright Council in clarifying points of copyright law and giving advice on individual cases.

Permission to publish material from the State Library of South Australia collections.

The State Library of South Australia has ownership rights of the material in its copy of the Bradman scrapbooks. Anyone wishing to reproduce any of this material in a publication, whether in printed or digital format, should read Publication of material from State Library of South Australia Collections.

The Library no longer charges publication fees as such. The preferred form of payment-in-kind is promotion for the Library and its collections through high-profile acknowledgment. Only in exceptional commercial circumstances, for example where an item is to be published as an adaptation involving a very long print run, such as a mint coin or product packaging, would an individual fee be negotiated.
