Welcome

Welcome to the Visual Resources Center. This page will guide you to the resources that are available to you for your research and projects. Not only can you find images here, but you can also learn how to use them.. You can learn how to format them for presentations, how to properly cite information, how to determine if that image you just downloaded from Google is accurate and how to protect yourself from all the copyright problems. Also, each month we will have surveys and images to tag which will help us figure out how to better help you. Take some time, enjoy, and if you have any questions that are still unanswered, feel free to ask.
