Document Delivery Fee Changes

Effective January 1, 2010, the State Law Library is making some adjustments to our document delivery fees.  For well over 10 years our minimum charge for delivery by fax, mail or email has been $3.00 for anything up to 4 pages.  The new minimum charge of $15.00 covers the delivery (by email, fax or mail) of up to 20 pages of material from print-based sources, or email delivery of any one document that's already in digital format, regardless of the number of pages.  Print-based documents longer than 20 pages will be billed at 75 cents per page.  These fees are all subject to sales tax where applicable.

For a complete listing of our copying, printing and document delivery fees, please see this updated chart.
