Everyone has used Google to find images, but it's definitely not the only source!

​Copyright, Creative Commons 101 by Jane Lofton

Flickr.com is a great resource that has many Creative Commons licenses, so you can use them in published works without first contacting the copyright holder for permission. Be sure, though, to select Creative Commons from the License drop-down after you do a search.

photosforclass.com searches for Creative Commons-licensed photos AND automatically provides the proper credit attribution

Search using the CreativeCommons.org site 

Here's some more (thanks to Joyce Valenza):
  • Google Advanced Image Search (or, search Google images, then click Search Tools -> Usage rights & select an option)
  • Pixabay (public domain photos)
  • Wikimedia Commons
  • Compfight / A Flickr Search Tool
  • FlickrStorm
  • Foter, PhotoPin, and Wylio (great for bloggers!)
  • PicDrome (public domain photos)
  • TinEye (search by CC images by color)

Check this guide by Joyce Valenza or  this guide from the Harvard Law Library for help understanding what you can and cannot use and for many great sites for images, sounds, videos and more.
