It's easy to add images to your exhibit, but you want to make sure you don't violate copyright. Failing to attribute the source of your images is just the same as plagiarizing information sources. Look for images in the public domain or with some kind of license to share like a Creative Commons license.
Check the metadata (descriptive information) for "Rights" or "Attribution" fields to find out how the images can be used and cited.
If an item is in the public domain, it is free to use, but it's still a good scholarly practice to say where you found it.
