State Library of South Australia Images

In Australia:

  • photographs taken before 1 January 1955 are out of copyright.
  • photographs in copyright on 1 January 2005 and where the creator is unknown, stay in copyright from the year first published plus 70 years.
  • photographs in copyright on 1 January 1955 where the creator is known, stay in copyright from the life of the creator plus 70 years.

The further publication of any item in copyright requires the permission of the copyright owner.

The State library of South Australia (SLSA), as owner of images shown on their website, requires permission to publish before publication.

This website includes a number of images that originate from the SLSA online service. Express permission was sought from the SLSA to publish those SLSA images on this website, and a license was granted to us by the SLSA.
