description Since the 1980s, the world has witnessed profound transformations in economics, technology, and information, leading to increased concerns about intellectual property rights and academic plagiarism. The advent of the internet has exacerbated intellectual theft, making information more accessible and contributing to the rise of plagiarism cases, whether intentional or unintentional. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of academic plagiarism, its causes, types, and prevalence among researchers in library and information sciences. It also examines plagiarism detection software, particularly those supporting the Arabic language, in terms of efficiency, usability, and cost. Furthermore, the study assesses researchers' adherence to academic integrity principles and proposes solutions and mechanisms to mitigate this issue within the academic community.
