<div dir="ltr"> We have a school-wide subscription to <a href="http://turnitin.com">turnitin.com</a> It's the most common one that schools use around here. I would check to see if your local high school does subscribe to it before you start exploring other options. I don't know of any elementary schools that subscribe and there are some middle schools. Teachers should be working on teaching students how to take notes, summarize and paraphrase ( that might be a good afterschool workshop for a public library to hold) The software is just a writing tool and should not be used as a "gotcha".<div>I think it would be a great idea to host a writing workshop. Want to learn how to avoid plagiarism? Come to the library to learn how to cite your sources properly, summarize and paraphrase things that you read...😀</div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Bradley Hand ITC""><font color="#000000" size="4">Klaudia Janek, MLIS</font></span></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><font color="#000000" size="2"><i>School Librarian</i></font></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><font color="#000000" size="2"><i>IB Extended Essay Coordinator</i></font></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><font color="#000000" size="2"><i>Michigan Association for Media in Education - 2019 Immediate Past President</i></font></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Calibri, sans-serif"><i>AASL </i></font></font><i style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Frances Henne Award Committee Chair - 2019</i></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Calibri, sans-serif"><i><br></i></font></font></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><font color="#000000" size="2">248 341 5925</font></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><a href="https://libresbooksmi.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">https://libresbooksmi.blogspot.com/</a><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><img src="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1p46vipMDvlWUN9sX3dOCkPjqSly-bbw3&revid=0B0pCjmVAaQhKVnd5SUg4S0owYXc2SXBLaHZQbkhiZ1Rac29VPQ" width="95" height="96"><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Nov 12, 2019 at 1:08 PM Andrus, Miriam via Michlib-l <<a href="mailto:michlib-l@mcls.org">michlib-l@mcls.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
