Re: [Cz-L] Use of photos

Miriam (Mimi) Taylor <mirtaylo_at_indiana.edu>

In answer to Marianne and others who have asked me to send them
or the list, the Email address of Natalya Shevchenko:

I do not think I have the right to divulge her Email address,
unless I get her permission to do so.

So that there is no misunderstanding of what I wrote to Mrs. Shevchenko,
Here is a copy of my original letter to her:

> I want to say that you have my consent, to use any
> of my photographs and documents displayed on the "ehpes" website,

> for the Jewish museum, but not for publication in any printed material.

I have previously sent the list Mrs. Shevchenko's answer.

Here is what I then wrote her in reply:

> I have written to the Czernowitz List and told the members
> of the list about the proposed album the city of Chernivtsi
> intends to publish. I do not know if many will object or not.

I do not speak or write Russian, she does not speak nor write English.
I had to have my letters to her and hers to me translated.
Therefore I cannot maintain a frequent correspondence with her.

But I will write her, that only some people may object to the use
of the photographs on the "ehpes" website for the proposed album and also
ask her whether I have her permission to divulge her Email address to
members of the Cz.-List.

Shabbat Shalom,

Mimi
