Copyright-free Media Search Engine

A handy resource if you need to include copyright-free (or "some rights reserved") images, video, music or other media in your work, CC Search provides convenient access to search services which restrict their results to items offered under a Creative Commons licence, permitting other people to freely use or modify them to best meet their needs.

All you need to do is type your search term in the Search Box, then click on whichever provider (Google, Flickr, SpinXpress, Wikimedia Commons, etc) you want to search with.

Still can't find what you need?

Finally, if you need media files (audio and video, as well as images), Wikimedia Commons offers access to 15 million freely usable files, organised by content, location, type and author.
