Avoiding Plagiarism Summary: There are few intellectual offenses more serious than plagiarism in academic and professional contexts. This resource offers advice on how to avoid plagiarism in your work. Contributors:Karl Stolley, Allen Brizee, Joshua M. PaizLast Edited: 2013-02-13 12:01:30 There are some actions that can almost unquestionably be labeled plagiarism. But then there are actions that are usually in more of a gray area. However, other teachers and administrators may not distinguish between deliberate and accidental plagiarism. When do we give credit? The key to avoiding plagiarism is to make sure you give credit where it is due. Bottom line, document any words, ideas, or other productions that originate somewhere outside of you. There are, of course, certain things that do not need documentation or credit, including: Deciding if something is "common knowledge"

Cite sources | UC Berkeley Library Citing your sources Citation management tools Citation management software can help organize research results and make writing papers easier by creating properly formatted bibliographies and footnotes. What is plagiarism? Plagiarism is a form of academic dishonesty, violating the Berkeley Campus Code of Student Conduct. According to the Code: "Plagiarism includes use of intellectual material produced by another person without acknowledging its source." Plagiarism is a serious violation of academic and student conduct rules and is punishable with a failing grade and possibly more severe action. Why cite sources? Whenever you quote or base your ideas on another person's work, you must document the source you used. Citations allow readers to locate and further explore the sources you consulted, show the depth and scope of your research, and give credit to authors for their ideas. By following these guidelines, you avoid plagiarism, which is a serious violation of the Code of Student Conduct.

Citing Sources and Avoiding Plagiarism Citing Sources When using another author’s intellectual property (from primary or secondary source material), it is essential that you properly cite your source. Giving credit not only benefits your credibility as an author, but will also help you avoid plagiarism. Be sure to carefully document all the necessary citation information for your sources while researching to make the process much easier. There are multiple formats for citation styles, and they vary according to academic discipline. Similarly, the American Psychological Association (APA) has its own form of citation and formatting that is most often utilized by courses in the social sciences. You should always check with your professor about which citation format to use.
