How do I reference and cite a figure from a source?
Answer
There are two possibilities for citing and referencing a figure from a source:
- you have reproduced the figure in your assignment, or
- you have referred to the figure in your text but have not reproduced it in your assignment
To cite and reference a figure that you have reproduced in your assignment:
Create a reference
Template
Creator(s) last name, Initial. OR Group name (Year). Title of figure [Format]. Publisher. http://www.url...
