The Image Services Center was established in July 2002 to promote preservation and facilitate access to fragile materials. Image Services preserves materials though microfilming, digitization, and photographic replication. We facilitate access by making surrogate copies for reference, study and exhibition.

Staff and Faculty Headshots

The Image Services Center in the Knight Library will be taking portraits of UO employees on Tuesday, May 7 and Wednesday, May 8. Photos will be taken in Room 61 of the Knight Library.

If your department needs photos for its website, newsletters, posters, and PR, or to share with other institutions, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. For just 10 minutes of your time, you’ll be able to get up-to-date photos to replace those dated ones your department has been living with for months or years or longer!

The fee will be $20 per person and you will receive all the photographs. We will also place each of the images in the central UO photo database at Design and Editing Services, conveniently available for your future use. Your department will pay for the photography fee via its departmental index. If your department is interested in booking six or more people consecutively for a one-hour block (or more), please contact me directly to discuss billing at a reduced per-person rate.
