Britannica ImageQuest—the academic image library that provides access to millions of rights-cleared images from a single trusted source—adds another 50,000+ images to its already massive inventory.

We’ve added another round of new acquisitions to ImageQuest, bringing the site’s total count to 3,343,516 images and 63 collections (but who’s counting?).

This update of 51,007 files includes additions to four existing collections—including seven files added to the Graphic Factory clip art collection by customer request—and one brand new collection.
