Ouriginal uses three types of sources:

• Work submitted by students in Ouriginal.
  Documents that were previously submitted by students in Ephorus and SafeAssign have been imported into Ouriginal and are thereby also protected from plagiarism.
• Publications from scientific publishers purchased by Ouriginal.
• Web searches.
