Giving Credit For Information You Have Found In Your Research

When you are given a research project, you must give credit for any information you find that you did not already know. This is citing a source and usually takes the form of a bibliography. If you do not give credit to the person or persons who provided you with the information you are stealing that work. This is called plagarism and it is against the law.
