Plagiarism and copyright violation have emerged as conditions of learning that merit more serious engagement than the prevailing technical solution of after-the-fact detection. Colby, Bates, and Bowdoin accordingly propose the development of a plagiarism and copyright resource site that would allow liberal arts colleges to engage these interrelated problems at the level of local institutional practices, values, and concerns. Through a combination of web-based resources, collaboratively developed by faculty, librarians, and technologists, and a series of one-day seminars, open to faculty, staff, and students, the proposed project would create a program of instruction to discourage the occurrence of student plagiarism and copyright violation.
