Structure-Function Collection


Acceptable use information

What's OK:

If you have permission to use this library, you may use the images 

   1) in presentations (computer-generated or slides) or 

   2) on posters (one print only, of any one image).  Please credit the CBE and the source noted.

 

What's not OK:

To submit any of these images for print reproduction (the quality is not adequate anyway!) or to make multiple copies for distribution without express written permission from the source and CBE.
 

How to acquire images

1. Click on the image you want to use – you will be linked to a full-sized (11" x 7.33") version of the image.

 

2. Right-click on the image and select "Copy" from the dialogue box that appears.

 

3. Open a presentation in PowerPoint. Make sure that page set-up is for 35mm slides.  Select page you want the image on.  From the edit menu, select "Paste."  Voila!

 

If you have questions, contact Peg Dirckx.
