SAN DIEGO, CA, July 28, 2012 (Press-News.org) The Pics4Learning image library is now integrated into the SNAP search product for education from Tek Data. Pics4Learning is an education-friendly source for over 30,000 copyright-friendly photos teachers and students can use in classroom projects.

"SNAP is a filtered media search engine students and teachers can use to find multimedia content such as videos, maps, journals, and audio files," shares Tek Data's Randy Kick. "We worked with the Tech4Learning development team to add Pics4Learning to the list of materials databases site administrators can include in a SNAP search."

"Over 100,000 students and teachers already use Pics4Learning.com each month. Working with Tek Data to include Pics4Learning images in the SNAP search engine is consistent with our vision for making Pics4learning available to as many students and teachers as possible," shares Dallas Jones, Chief Technology Officer for Tech4Learning.
