There was a movie recently out called Unfinished Business. It stars Vince Vaughn. And as
part of the publicity for it, the filmmakers have teamed up with Getty
(who run iStock Photo) to make some stock photography freely available
for editorial (i.e. non-commercial) use. This is a really nice idea!
It's a good bit of marketing (although as I say in my workshops, the vast majority of marketing doesn't work directly; I'm just as unlikely to go see the film as I was before...) and the photos themselves are great. I can imagine them being quite effective in information literacy sessions...
My favourite one is this:
You can download them all here, and generally read more about them on my main site here.
Two more great sources of photos are Unsplash and New Old Stock - they're free and completely reusable in any way you like. I used Unsplash a lot in a recent keynote on Social Media in Libraries.
Some examples of each site can be found in this post.
