Can I use this photo in my project?

Photos and images posted on the internet, unless you took them yourself, are not always free to use in a project, blog or website. Check out Photos for Class for photos that have been licensed for school use. Another bonus, the photos also contain the attribution information (similar to a citation) to give credit to the photographer.

 Fair Use Policy for copyrighted materials should also be kept in mind before using the work of others in your classroom. These sites help explain "Fair Use" U.S. Copyright Office and OWL, The Purdue University Online Writing Lab.
