Referencing

I need your help regarding referencing. I’ve already checked all information on this website - https://lrweb.beds.ac.uk/guides/a-guide-to-referencing/ref , however I can not find any information how to reference/insert caption to:

1.       Graph taken from book or website or report
2.       Graph or table, which is based on ( not original one) book, website or report
3.       Logo or picture taken from company website



I would be grateful if you could provide me these information as well as some examples.

Where you have stated ‘graph or table, which is based on ( not original one) book, website or report’, I would need to clarify what you mean by this.  If you mean that the graph is in one book but is listed as being taken from another source (graph by X is in a book by Y) then you would need to use Secondary Referencing  (which can be found here: https://lrweb.beds.ac.uk/guides/a-guide-to-referencing/Secondary_ref).

I hope this helps.
