Retrospective Digitization of Theses and Dissertations: Revisiting Issues and Considerations
Date: May 2011
Creator: Alemneh, Daniel Gelaw & Phillips, Mark Edward
Description: This poster displays information about digitization of theses and dissertations. Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) play significant roles, not only as new forms of scholarly communication, but also as drivers for the development of institutional repositories and digital libraries in general. The University of North Texas (UNT) was among the early U.S. institutions that moved quickly and aggressively to implement an ETD program. In 1999, UNT required the submission of theses and dissertations in electronic format. The UNT Libraries have been playing an active role in supporting the UNT ETD program by integrating ETDs into the existing digital resources. ETDs receive significant usage in the UNT Digital Library system, compared to the overall percentage of digital objects.

Rhapsody in Green: ETDs at the University of North Texas
Date: February 2012
Creator: Kleister, Jill & Alemneh, Daniel Gelaw
Description: This presentation discusses electronic theses and dissertations at the University of North Texas (UNT). UNT began mandatory ETDs for both theses and dissertations in fall 1999, making it the 3rd institution in the world to go "electronic" in this way. There have been challenges along the way, but from the very beginning there has been a close and cordial relationship between the Grad School and the Libraries which serves to "book end" the student's ETD experience in a meaningful and productive way. During this session, UNT's ETD process from start to finish will be explained, especially the ways in which the Grad School and the Libraries work together to enhance the lifecycle management of students' research output at UNT.
