What should the Table of Contents include?

A Table of Contents acts as a navigational map for the document’s structure. It should list every major part readers might want to locate: sections and subsections, along with the starting page numbers, and the key visuals and supplementary parts such as tables, graphs, and appendices. This arrangement makes it easy to jump to any topic or element and shows how the work is organized. Summaries of chapters are typically placed elsewhere, and a list of figures alone doesn’t provide the full map of the content. The abstract and keywords belong to the front matter rather than to the navigational outline.
