Plagiarism awareness starting points

To avoid plagiarism, you need to acknowledge where you are using the work of others in an accurate and approved manner. Make sure you take time to reference accurately and don't be afraid to ask for help!

Referencing guides and software

I-cite is the University's one-stop guide to referencing. As well as information on correct referencing, it provides you with access to software which makes referencing even easier.
