The Johannes Oentoro Library UPH held a seminar with the themed ?Plagiarism? on 7 May 2014. This seminar started with the speech that was given by Esterina M. Jonathan, as the library manager with the title ?Library Role in Open Access Era?. She explained the Permendiknas no 17, 2010 about the prevention and the control of plagiarism at universities. ?The rule states that every university need to download all the students scientific works, lecture researchers, and the labor of education aspect in series of preventing and controlling the plagiarism.? explained Esterina.

Henry also mentioned the causal factor of plagiarism, which is the poor academic ethics, the coherency with the judicial court, and the poorness of filtering novelty creation. A lot of cases are related to plagiarism in final thesis, and dissertation. For example: BP at Jakarta Post, and AA article at Kompas are one of the proof of plagiarism. It?s also mentioned that there are a few kinds of plagiarism such as idea plagiarism, word by words plagiarism, source plagiarism, and author plagiarism. There are also ?self plagiarism? type, which is recycling works, and double publication.
Plagiarism is not just an ethical problem, but plagiarism is a lawsuit problem. Plagiarism is one interesting topic to discuss. ?This year we bring plagiarism as a topic because we can already see some cases that happened in the universities in Indonesia, where a lot of professors or professor candidates get caught on doing the plagiarism.? said Esterina. She also mentioned that intellectual honesty needed to be remembered in all universities. This thing is correspondingly with UPH vision, Godly character. Intellectual honesty is part of Godly character, which we want to apply to UPH internal system, and also to the public.
