Plagiarism

In the fall I will have a PR campaign for SafeAssignment and original writing. This normally goes as Plagiarism. As such I will need to collect some materials to draw on when creating the PR campaign. Here is a collection of links I have found related to Plagiarism. Rather than post each one individually, I am going to keep editing this entry.
