How it works

01Brief

Share a location, theme or research question and how you intend to use the result.

02Source discovery

We search relevant collections, archives, libraries, catalogues and other sources.

03Review

Each find is checked for relevance, source information, metadata and available rights.

04Hand-off

You receive the findings — or a finished collection — with clear next steps.

What you receive

Finding an image in an archive does not automatically mean every use is permitted. Research is not a licence or commercial clearance — rights are reviewed and documented separately.
