If you refer to information from the photo, image, chart, graph, or table but do not reproduce it in your paper, create a citation both in-text and on your Works Cited list.
If the information is part of another format, for example a book, magazine article or website, cite the work it came from. For example if information came from a table in an article in National Geographic magazine, you would cite the entire magazine article.

Fig. X. Description of the figure from: citation for source figure was found in. |
The caption for a figure begins with a description of the figure, then the complete Works Cited list citation for the source the figure was found in. For example, if it was found on a website, cite the website. If it was in a magazine article, cite the magazine article.
Label your figures starting at 1.
Information about the figure (the caption) is placed directly below the image in your assignment.
If the image appears in your paper the full citation appears underneath the image (as shown below) and does not need to be included in the Works Cited List. If you are referring to an image but not including it in your paper you must provide an in-text citation and include an entry in the Works Cited List.
Example:
Fig. 1. Man exercising from: Green, Annie. "Yoga: Stretching Out." Sports Digest, 8 May 2006, p. 22.
Example:

Source: Citation for source table was found in.
Above the table, label it beginning at Table 1, and add a description of what information is contained in the table.
The caption for a table begins with the word Source, then the complete Works Cited list citation for the source the table was found in. For example, if it was found on a website, cite the website. If it was in a journal article, cite the journal article.
Information about the table (the caption) is placed directly below the table in your assignment.
If the table is not cited in the text of your assignment, you do not need to include it in the Works Cited list.
