Ethics Focus: Plagiarism
September 10 | 13:00 – 14:30 | Registration »
A researcher's career is built on their ideas and contributions to the scholarly record. So you can see why, in academic publishing, giving proper credit to the original source or creator is so important. When this goes wrong, it can lead to plagiarism and serious negative consequences.
Plagiarism is one of the most common types of publication misconduct and comes in many forms. Yet there is no single global definition for plagiarism and researchers/ authors are often confused about where the boundaries lie in terms of what is an act of plagiarism and what is considered acceptable similarity under publication ethics standards. This is especially true when it comes text-recycling where researchers are reusing their own previous work.
This session will focus on:
• How we define plagiarism for Taylor & Francis Journals, including what are the most common types
• Provide clarity on where it is NOT plagiarism and where the grey areas are (for example in text-recycling)
• How we detect plagiarism and what happens when plagiarism is found
• Offer practical tips on how to avoid plagiarism and the importance of correct citation practices
This webinar will help you gain a clear understanding of how we define and handle plagiarism and text-recycling in our journals. You'll also feel more equipped on how to avoid plagiarism and know the importance of why plagiarism should be avoided.

Join us for a cutting-edge webinar on the best ways to use social media to amplify your research and build a credible academic profile. In an era where social media platforms are rapidly evolving — such as with the emergence of decentralised networks like Bluesky and significant shifts in established platforms — researchers face new opportunities and challenges in promoting their work. This session delves into the responsible use of social media in promoting your academic research, building your profile and network, and engaging with diverse audiences. We'll explore strategies for effective communication, discuss the implications of platform changes, and provide practical tips to help you navigate the dynamic digital landscape with confidence and integrity.
