I want to put an image in my class paper. What do I need to do?
Answer
Follow these steps:
- Search for an image that is in the public domain or has a license for reuse. Creative Commons Searchis a good place to begin. If you find an appropriate image, proceed to step 4.
- If you can't find an image that is licensed or in the public domain, choose an image and do a fair use analysis. If you determine that your use of that image is fair, proceed to step 4.
- If you determine that your use is not fair, request permission from the copyright owner for the image you would like to use. After you receive permission, proceed to step 4.
- Add the image to your paper. Be sure to include the appropriate credit.
