What does it look like?

Still thinking about finding visuals. There is a database in GALILEO just for Images [EBSCO].
The images consist of a wide array of photos and maps, with an emphasis on world news and events. Other areas of coverage include contemporary and historical photos of people, places, and the natural kingdom.
The nice thing about using the EBSCO product is they'll create a citation for you. I don't see the cite link on the page but when I click on the email icon, there is the citation format. I tested it by e-mailing myself. A citation and a permalink arrive with this helpful disclaimer
NOTE: Review the instructions at and make any necessary corrections before using. Pay special attention to personal names, capitalization, and dates. Always consult your library resources for the exact formatting and punctuation guidelines.
This resource makes it easier to find and cite pictures to illustrate a presentation.

For access to Images [EBSCO] in GALILEO get the current password from your Georgia librarian.
