Search the New Image Collection on lexis.com®

This year, we have added and expanded our collection of visual media on lexis.com. The collection of all visual media can be found under the News & Business tab, and Featured Content and Services. 

The Visual Media file is a collection of photographs, graphics, illustrations, cartoons, caricatures, and charts with international coverage including news, business, arts & entertainment, sports, fashion & beauty, sci-tech, travel, health & medicine, and food. Included in this file are images from:

• Ai Wire Photos
• Color China
• Congressional Quarterly Photos (Washington, D.C.)
• McClatchy-Tribune Graphic Service
• McClatchy-Tribune Photo Service
• Roll Call Photos
• WENN Photos (London)
• World Picture Network

You can search these sources in the group file, or individually by title. To search for recent photos and graphs featuring the top Democratic presidential candidates:

Search:  barrack obama and hillary clinton and date aft 8/1/2007

The results retrieved are a compilation of photographs of the two candidates along with graphs showing recent poll results. Use Visual Media to add interest to reports or  articles or to underscore statistical information with graphs. Contact your Librarian Relations Consultant for additional information.
