Frequently Asked Questions

Text

Text in NIAMS publications and on the NIAMS Web site is in the public domain. You don't need permission to photocopy, reprint, or otherwise reproduce the text. However, we request that you give credit to the NIAMS if you use NIAMS text. If you alter or change NIAMS text, you may not cite the NIAMS as the source, because altered text is no longer consistent with the NIAMS-approved original.

Images

Many of the photographs appearing in NIAMS publications and on the NIAMS Web site have been purchased from other sources and are copyrighted. The NIAMS cannot grant anyone permission to reproduce copyrighted images. Please contact us (NIAMSInfo@mail.nih.gov) to find out if the illustration or photograph you would like to reproduce is in the public domain or copyrighted.

The NIAMS maintains an online image database from which you can download NIAMS images. All items appearing in the image database are in the public domain. You may reproduce them as you wish. The NIAMS requests that you credit the NIAMS as the source of the illustration or photograph. If you alter or change a NIAMS image, you may not cite the NIAMS as the source, because an altered image is no longer consistent with the NIAMS-approved original.
