each Turnitin product in one location and view all the products simultaneously as layers.
All the top sources found to match the paper submission are in the sidebar to the right of the paper contents. Top sources are the
sources that have the closest match (most matching words without variation) to the document's text.
To view all underlying sources for a top source hover the cursor over the source and click on the arrow icon. The overlapping sources

Once you have selected all the sources to exclude, click on the "Exclude (#)" button at the bottom of the Match Breakdown list. If the
sources that were excluded affects the Similarity Index it will recalculate and display a new percentage of matching content.
Product Navigation
To view the paper in GradeMark click on the "GradeMark" tab at the top left corner of the Document Viewer.
You will notice that the sidebar changes functionality and that the GradeMark tab is now highlighted blue notifying you that you are
now viewing the paper in GradeMark. To view the Originality Report layer while grading a paper, click on the radio button directly to
