Open access theses and dissertations

OpenDissertations.org will help facilitate discovery.


EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) and BiblioLabs will launch OpenDissertations.org in January 2018. 

Students, researchers, and libraries can submit to the service. Metadata will be included in EBSCO’s Discovery Service and users will be driven to partnering sites, such as academic institutional repositories, to access full text documents. The service will aggregate and expose the content and extend access to interested readers worldwide. 

The project is open to libraries around the world and currently includes: the British Library’s EThOS Service, Cornell University, Florida State University, University of Florida, University of Michigan, Michigan State University and the University of Kentucky.
