Blog Post and press release are considered poor sources of reliable information because they can be considered useful to run as a web search to help find good sources it's usually more effective to ask a librarian. Reasons you would not want to use a company website as the main source of information are warning banners, fragmented lead section, value statements, gaps in sourcing, under-developed reference section,and imbalanced sections. The difference between copyright violation and plagiarism is one is using someone else's work and ideas without citing the criteria and copyright violation is an offense against the copyright holder. Good techniques to avoid close paraphrasing and plagiarism is to find information from from a variety of good sources, make sure the information is understood and placed in your own words. (MR)
