ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
We all have taken pictures of exhibitions we have developed or are
developing in science museums.
Is there a blanket rule regarding their use without having obtained
permission? Is it permissible to use them in a talk? Is it permissible to
use them on a web site or another publication? Are museums considered a
public space where you have right to take pictures and use the images as on
a public street?
Sources would be helpful.
