Copyright
The bulk of the material we have in our holdings was created 30 to 90 years ago. In most cases we have no idea under what conditions the records were created, nor can we say with any certainty who owns copyright. However this does not absolve the recipient of responsibility for ascertaining and respecting any copyright restrictions that may apply. The NWT Archives is in no way responsible for any copyright violations.

Please acknowledge the generosity of those who have made their photographs accessible to future generations by providing credit information when the images are displayed or published.
Commercial use of the images requires payment of usage fees.
