There have been a lot of posts and tweets flying around lately about public domain images. I've put them all here in one, easy to find place.

Search Engines- Below are instructions on how to find fair use images using the three major search engines. Even though you've restricted the search, it is still a good idea to go directly to the web page and read through the details of the license before using the image.
- Google Image Search After searching for your image, click on the gear in the upper right corner and select "Advanced Search." At the bottom of the new menu, you'll see an option to search by usage rights.
- Yahoo Image Search After searching for your image, click on the double arrow on the upper left corner of the screen. At the bottom of the new menu, make sure that "Labeled for Reuse" is shown.
- Bing Image Search After searching for your image, click on "License" and select public domain.
Thank you to Make Use Of and +Richard Byrne originally shared a number of these options.
