What is Public Domain?
• Works in the public domain are those whose copyrights have expired, have been forfeited, or are inapplicable.
• Finding something on the internet does not mean it is in the public domain.

How do you know if an image is copyright or not?• Check the page you are on and see
if there is a copyright or “terms of use” notice
• If the image is copyrighted, you shouldrequest permission from the publisher to use it
These terms will come up often as we discuss free photo sources. Read over the terms and conditions of each site
you try so you know exactly when and what type of attribution is required.
