The problem with Google images
Or, how to use great tools wisely… and
avoid plagiarism at the same time

Search for a photo using Google images
Find the photo you like.
Save the photo in your local folder. It will be easy to insert in into your
presentation. Stay on the web page.
Open Noodlebib. Create project and make your first citation. You may
need to cite your photo as a photograph retrieved from an online
database or as a weblog. We don’t have a perfect solution yet.
Annotate the photo. Put the name of the photo in the annotation field.
Click through to the website Google found the image on. Copy the
photo onto the notecard in Noodlebib.
Paste the link from the photo’s web page in the annotation field or put it
in the URL field on the citation (even though MLA says you do not need
to anymore). This way you will have both items together when you are
ready to put your presentation together.
Neither citation is perfect, but each provides
enough information for your teacher to locate the
photo if she needs.
