Need charts-HEA 339 assignment

I've heard from several public health students who need a chart or a graph from a health article or book (can be scholarly or popular, even newspaper) for a ppt presentation. I think these students are all from HEA 339. Here's my standard advice in case it saves time for you -

CINAHL, Academic Search Premier, and probably other Ebscohost databases have good health content and search limits such as "image quick view"
  1. Type a search such as mrsa
  2. Under the search box, check "image quick view" limit
  3. Under a search result, click one of the chart thumbnails for links to "permission" and "high resolution image"
  4. On the hi-res version, right-click to save the image

And there's always the advanced Google Images search which has a limit for images labeled for reuse. Probably many more sources, these are the ones that spring to mind.

If the student wants to look at current health magazines in print, we still have a few of those that they can use in conjunction with a scanner. Prevention is one example.

Best,
Lea
