Thursday, October 13, 2022—Avoiding Plagiarism in Funded Research

Typically, plagiarism comes up in institutions of higher education as it relates to undergraduate course work – purchasing final papers from online sources, students copying from each other, failing to paraphrase sources or cite them properly, etc. However, even well-intentioned researchers make some common mistakes with their funded projects that can be classified as plagiarism, which puts their grants and Clemson’s reputation at risk. In this session, I will go over these common mistakes and the real-world consequences they can carry, and give researchers strategies to stay safe and avoid accusations of plagiarism.

Presenter – Megan Sheffield, Data Services Librarian

Target audience – Faculty, staff, postdocs, and students

Location – In Person 413 Cooper Library (Scholars Lab)
