My self-intro and question

I am a senior professor at a national university in Taiwan. 

Because I was asked to be a referee for a Violation of Academic Ethics case, I hope your insight can help me.

The disputed article used Gadamer's Truth and Method, a hermeneutic authority book, without citation.

Since the book Truth and Method was published long before Turnitin was created, is its text available online for cross examination?

Thanks!

    Hello Chung-yi!

    Nice to meet you, and welcome to the Turnitin Educator Network! (TEN)

    We'd like to make sure we fully understand your question so we can provide a helpful response. When you refer to Truth and Method not being available online, are you asking whether:

    1. Turnitin is capable of detecting uncredited use of this text even if it's not freely accessible on the internet?

    2. Or are you specifically looking for a way to verify whether Truth and Method is part of Turnitin’s content database for cross-referencing purposes?

    - Kat, Turnitin Team
