How do I add a figure from an image found in Image Finder into a chapter in a Figures List?

Last updated on December 18, 2025

After you have found an image using Image Finder, you can add the image to any of the figures lists to which you contribute.

Depending on the source of the found image, you need to do one of the following:

  • If the image comes from a journal or curated collection, the status of the resulting figure is yellow in the figures list, you can download the image at any time in order to make it available (green) in your project.
  • If the image comes from a book, you need to request a copy of the original artwork from the Global Book Archive before you can make the image available in your project.

After viewing the image details, to add an image from the search results, click on the 'Add to figures list' button. The 'Add figure' pop-up window is displayed.
