Copyright-Free Media Sources
The following are a few sites which list public domain, copyright-free, or Creative Commons media sources. You can also do a Google search using words such as “public domain”, “copyright free” “creative commons” and “images”, “media”, “music”, etc. to find others, or a Google search with the appropriate licensing options selected in the Advanced Search settings. The presence of a resource on any of these lists does not guarantee that all or any of the media in it are copyright-free. You are still responsible for checking the copyright status of media, and citing the source, where appropriate.
NOTE: Most images from the Internet are NOT appropriate for print use, as they are low resolution. Make sure that any images you use from the Internet are high enough resolution for the intended use AND are not copyright protected! (Ask me if you are unsure about either of these.)
