HOW TO FIND IMAGES "LABELED FOR REUSE" AND AVOID PLAGIARISM

In this post you will learn to find google images labeled for reuse and avoid plagiarism.

What does labeled for reuse mean?
There are two ways to explain what labeled for reuse means.

The official explanation that most websites use: Labeled for reuse means that individuals can take a photo and reuse it commercially, or non-commercially, as it is.

A simpler explanation: As an individual, you are able to use these photos in any way that you’d like whether they be for commercial purposes such as your own website, or noncommercial purposes such as a school project. In other words, if an image is labeled for reuse it means that you can use it however you want, wherever you want, without modifying anything and that’s okay.

STEP 1
Using google search enter the image you are searching for.

STEP 2
Once you have the images displayed, click on tools.
You will see another tool bar opens and you select usage rights.
You then select labeled for reuse.
