Question:
May I use cartoons from the BCA catalogue in seminars and conference papers?
Answer:
You may use material from the BCA catalogue in presentations at academic seminars and conferences, including poster presentations, so long as no publication takes place outside the seminar or conference venue. You should identify the BCA as the source of the cartoon, and also give the name of the cartoonist, the publication, and the date. An example would be “British Cartoon Archive: Michael Cummings, Daily Express, 4 January 1965.”
This permission does not extend to the use of material from the BCA catalogue in the publicity for academic seminars or conferences, or in presentations at commercial seminars and conferences, or at training events. In these cases permission to use copyright cartoons must be sought from the copyright owner, and from the BCA for all other material.
