Musée d’art de Joliette

The Musée d’art de Joliette (MAJ) displays images of numerous works of art on its website, some of which are still subject to copyright. To respect these rights, the Musée asks users not to reproduce the images posted on its site for uses other than fair dealing as outlined in the Copyright Act (for purposes such as private study, research, or education).

In such cases, the MAJ asks users to indicate the title of the work, the name of the artist, and any collection or copyright that may be mentioned.

It is forbidden to modify the images in any way that could impact the integrity of the work (e.g., cropping the image, adding new elements, changing the colours).

Under no circumstances should the MAJ be associated with a product, project, or company solely through the use of an image posted on its site.

Reproduction of the images for any purpose other than fair dealing as defined in the Copyright Act is strictly prohibited without prior authorization from the MAJ. A request for reproduction may be submitted to the MAJ by writing to communication@museejoliette.org.

In posting images of the works in its collection on its website, the MAJ assumes no responsibility for any recourse or claim that a third party may make, particularly with respect to copyright violations involving the use of an image in a way that is not permitted by law.

The Musée d’art de Joliette uses the latter’s Public Domain (or Public Domain in Canada) Mark. Content that is clearly identified with one of these copyright marks may be used in accordance with the conditions specific to the mark. When use requires prior written authorization (licence), the interested party must contact the MAJ or the rights holder.

For all authorized use of the content, the user must mention the name of the artist or creator (if known) and the source (“Musée d’art de Joliette”), preferably with the inventory number, the name of the artist, the title of the work, the year it was created, the dimensions, or the URL of the content.
