The Writer’s Guide to Sourcing Images
Sourcing photos, illustrations and images for publishing projects present a number of legal and ethical challenges. This practical workshop is designed for writers, editors, zinesters, and independent publishers who want to confidently find and use images in their creative work. Whether you’re assembling a zine, designing an email newsletter, or laying out a self-published book, this session will help you make informed choices about what sort of images you can use, and how to acquire them.

Instructor Andy Sturdevant, Artist Resources Manager at Springboard for the Arts, will cover the basics of copyright law, how to understand and apply Creative Commons licenses, what counts as fair use (and what doesn’t), the basics of commissioning artists to create original illustrations, and how to navigate image licensing for print and digital media. You’ll also learn about the many reputable sources for free or low-cost images, including Wikimedia Commons, Flickr Commons, government archives, and museum digital collections.

This workshop will be held on Zoom, and will not be recorded. Automated captions will be enabled.
