I very much agree with Joel that archival charging of use fees is problematic. A further aspect of this is that an institution charging use fees for an image whose rights it does not possess strikes me as a lawsuit waiting to happen. It is one thing to charge for reproducing an image as that is a technical matter. It is very different to make money off of an image via use fees when the rights to that image belong to someone else.
