"You can now simplify and improve your search for images with Image Quest. Enjoy your access to more than two million rights-cleared images from over 50 of the best collections in the world (soon to be over 60 collections!). Dorling Kindersley Images, Getty Images, the National Portrait Gallery of London, the National Geographic Society, Oxford Scientific, and other leading names have joined with Britannica to provide the best and broadest collection of proprietary educational imagery. Teachers can use the images in their lesson plans and classroom activities while students will turn to the site as they work on homework assignments and school or course projects. Free of advertising and from trustworthy sources, Image Quest provides safe and fast access to high quality images on all topics and for all ages."Yes, there are tons of images via the web. There are sites that offer images for free use. It's hard to help students quickly find an image that is usable for their projects and is 'legal'. Image Quest gives our students an edge to bring creativity to a project without stepping on the toes of the artist who created the image!
Check with your CTC librarian for access information.
