Copyright is protected by federal law, which allows use of copyrighted material by others only under certain circumstances.
Most times you must ask the copyright owner for permission to use their work.
Uses for copyright that are not acceptable are using entire works, or posting copyrighted material to web sites that do not have restricted access.
Plagiarism

To steal and pass off the ideas or words of another as one’s own without crediting the source.
Plagiarism and copyright are not the same thing.
Plagiarism is about providing credit for the work and copyright is about using only the amount of work that is necessary to make your point.
