Harvard Solent Referencing Guide

A list of figures is a complete list of all images and diagrams you reproduce in your written work in one final list. A figure could be an image, photograph, drawing, illustration, chart, graph or any other artwork. 

If your module leader has not set out list of figures as an element to be used within your assignment/or piece of work, we recommend that you check with them whether their use would be appropriate before doing so.

General guidance for setting out a list of figures:

• A list of figures is where you display all referencing information about an artwork, images, photographs, graphs etc you have reproduced in your work. This is similar to your reference list/bibliography, but only for figures included in your work.
• A list of figures is not in alphabetical order.
• A list of figures is detailed on a separate page(s) after your reference list/bibliography. 
• Each figure is numbered in the order that it appears in your work (e.g. Figure 1. Figure 2. Figure 3.) and includes the caption relating to the figure.
• Each numbered figure should match all corresponding entries in your work. 
• The full reference to each figure will vary depending on how you have accessed the artwork, images, photographs, graphs etc; whether within a book, an article, found online, or in a gallery etc.
• There is detailed guidance on referencing these individual sources within the Harvard Solent A-Z list of referencing examples.
