Workshop Overview

Using images in your assignments or presentations can really add to the impact of your work and help you to illustrate an idea, or convey meaning. A picture is after all, worth a thousand words! It is very easy to find images online that you can download and import to a Word or Powerpoint file, but what if you want to use someone else’s photo, image or artwork in your project or thesis, is this even allowed? This workshop with Michelle Breen, Head of Information Services at UL Library, will introduce you to the Do's and Don’ts around the use of images in your assignments.

At the end of this session you will know

1. a little bit about copyright and how it protects peoples creations, their images in particular,

2. where to find high quality, free to use, images for your UL assignments,

3. how to correctly cite/reference an image that you find online in your assignments.
