Simplify and improve your search for images with Image Quest. Now you can access more than two million rights-cleared images from over 40 of the best collections in the world (soon to be over 60 collections!). Dorling Kindersley Images, Getty Images, the National Portrait Gallery of London, the National Geographic Society, Oxford Scientific, and other leading names have joined with Britannica to provide the best and broadest collection of proprietary educational imagery. Teachers can use the images in their lesson plans and classroom activities while students will turn to the site as they work on homework assignments and school or course projects. Free of advertising and from trustworthy sources, Image Quest provides safe and fast access to high quality images on all topics and for all ages.

LOCATE RIGHTS-CLEARED IMAGES SELECTED FOR EDUCATIONAL RELEVANCE
All images in Image Quest are rights-cleared for non-commercial, educational use— great for teacher lessons plans, assignments, activities, and whiteboards; student reports and projects; or school Web sites, newsletters, newspapers, flyers, and bulletins.

SAVE TIME
Organized by subject matter and fully searchable, Image Quest provides a unique collection from trustworthy sources. With images of every topic in one convenient site, you don’t have to spend time combing through multiple Web sites looking for reliable images.

BE CONFIDENT IN THE IMAGES YOU USE
Each photo or illustration comes with complete metadata, including the source, the copyright holder, caption, and keywords. Because Britannica has done the work of finding the best photos—most of which are not freely available on the Web—you can trust the source and be certain that you’re using an accurate photo.

ENJOY QUICK AND EASY ACCESS
Images can be downloaded, printed, saved in a “Lightbox” or virtual folder, or e-mailed as jpegs.
