Using Images

As a reminder, you should have permission or a license to use any images you use in your materials and online if you are not the actual copyright holder.  Please do not download and use images you find online, on social media, or various other platforms without the permission of the photographer (or other copyright owner). 

You may think others are downloading and sharing photos all the time so how can it be illegal?  Although this may be a common occurrence, it's copyright infringement to use images you do not have rights to.  You should not take an image you sourced online and post it on your website or include it in your materials unless you have permission or a license to do so.
