This site contains information from a module that I taught 1999-2002 and does not get updated. Hopefully some of the links remain useful

Visual Images: Sources on the Internet

The following are a few possibilities for Internet sites to visit, it is not a definitive list - nor is it necessarily going to provide any/all of the information you need. Bear in mind that sites can be added to, and removed from, the Internet on a daily basis. If you find a new site, please pass it on. As with all sources, make sure you exercise quality control when using internet materials. (Evaluate)
