Office Policy for Re-use of Visual Images:Visual images such as photographs, video, design elements and logos created by the Information Technology and Communication Services (ITCS) staff are developed as a shared resource for the faculty and staff of the College of ACES. They may be used for any college funded or approved projects run or administered for the greater good of the college. ITCS staff are able to provide clients with high quality work at very reasonable prices because our work is subsidized by the college. Clients are encouraged to use existing visual images when they fit their needs. If what they need does not exist and a client wishes to commission ITCS to create new works they are contributing to that shared resource. In order that the client get the full value for their commissioned work we agree to contact the commissioning client if approached by others requesting to use those new visual images prior to the usage for which the work was originally intended. After the project is finished, published or released, ITCS staff will contact the commissioning parties only if there is a question as to the whether the use of a particular visual image is appropriate. We feel this agreement will protect the interests of the comissioning clients while allowing others to enjoys the benefits of the full resources of the college.
