There are lots of images that are free to use-- either the artist/photographer made them free or they're in what's called "Public Domain." Check out some of these option. But don't forget-- you always need to cite any images you use!

To cite an image found online, follow this format:

Photographer, P. (Year of publication). Title of photograph [Photograph]. Source. URL

So an example would be:

Voltamax. (2017). Untitled [Photograph]. Pixabay. https://pixabay.com/images/id-2019420/

Things to think about when assessing a web resource's credibility:

• Is this same information reported elsewhere?
• Who wrote this information? Why?
• Who is the intended audience?
• Is the information mean to provoke strong feelings?

When searching Google, remember these tips:

• Only want to search through .gov or .edu sites? Try a search like this:
  • Covid site:.gov
  • This will return only results that a) involve Covid and b) are from government websites
• Only want to search through a particular website? Try this:
  • covid: site:cdc.gov
  • This will return only results about covid in cdc.gov
• Use quotations marks if you're searching for a particular phrase
  • "vaccine hesitancy"
  • This will search google for only results that use the phrase "vaccine hesitancy" not just the word vaccine and the word hesitancy
• Use "in between" words like AND, OR, and NOT in between your search terms
  • covid AND diabetes
  • vaccine OR inoculation
  • STD NOT herpes
