Huntingtown High School Library: Travel Guide Project

Welcome to the HHS Library Learning Commons!

Tips for researching Travel Guides

Start here! Many of these resources can be helpful as you research your travel destination. 

When using the commercial websites (.com), always think about credibility and authority. Who wrote the information? What is their purpose for writing?

Looking for public domain and copyright-friendly media?  Search the Creative Commons for images, music, and other creative works available to use for free.  Always be sure to check licensing on any work before using it in your school project.
