Plagiarism Guidelines

The International Bulletin of Linguistics and Literature (IBLL) maintains a strict anti-plagiarism policy to uphold the integrity of academic publishing. All submissions must represent original work, and authors are required to appropriately cite and acknowledge the contributions of others. The journal employs plagiarism detection tools to screen manuscripts for unoriginal content. Any manuscript found to contain plagiarized material, including verbatim copying, improper paraphrasing, or the use of previously published data without attribution, will be immediately rejected. Authors must also avoid self-plagiarism, where their own previously published work is reused without proper citation or substantial modification. In cases of suspected plagiarism, the editorial team will follow the guidelines set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) to investigate and resolve the issue. Authors are encouraged to verify the originality of their manuscripts before submission and to adhere to ethical research practices to maintain the credibility of their work and the journal.
