Searching for Images? - The Internet provides a rich source of images for art educationalists, although locating specific images can be difficult. Search engines make it possible (though sometimes difficult) to find textual information, let alone finding suitable images. We have indepth information on sites dedicated to image searching and information on how some search engines can be used to locate that illusive image.
