I’ve always loved using Flickr’s Creative Common search for pictures to use in websites, design and other projects. You can always find some great stuff there – but now the Library of Congress has joined Flickr and with it – added several thousand pictures to the site that are Public Domain.
Both Flickr and the Library of Congress are encouraging people to search them, browse them and tag them to make finding photos that much easier.

You can find out more on the Flickr Blog, the Flickr Commons page or just search the Library of Congress for yourself.
