What can I do with material on ET?

  • Material from this site may be viewed, copied or printed for personal, private and academic use only.

  • This means you can include text and pictures in your school project (excluding websites) as long as a full citation is included (see below).

  • You should use this website as you would use a book. i.e. You should use it as a reference but you should not copy text. In short, you should use a variety of sources and put things in your own words.

  • You must always acknowledge your sources and reference them appropriately. i.e. if you use ET as a resource you must say so explicitly.

  • Always ensure that copyright notices, contributor lists, details of authorship, ownership, acknowledgments and references which already appear in the text remain unchanged. It is not enought to just credit ET, you must also credit the individual contributors to the page you are using.

  • It is unethical and in some cases illegal to present someone else's work as your own, this is called plagiarism. Not only is this unfair and unethical, you will also be perpetuating any mistakes that exist in the source you are copying.
