CITE YOUR SOURCES!

EasyBib is a quick way to create an MLA citation and show where you got your information and images!

DID YOU KNOW?
You have to cite IMAGES too!

You could be STEALING!

If you take the first image you find on a Google search, you could be stealing. You can only use images that are labeled "Available for Reuse" or "Public Domain."

​

Set up your Google search:

1. Go to Google Images

2. Click on the "Tools" button

3. Under "Usage Rights" select "Labeled for Reuse"

​

When you have found an image, make sure to cite it! Select "photograph" in EasyBib and fill out as much information as possible. Then add it to your Works Cited page.
