Coventry University Repository Validation and Enhancement-Final Report

Leeds Met has been funded under the Repositories Start Up programme to establish an institutional repository. The project began with an institutional needs analysis, which resulted in the starting point for the population of the repository to be based on research outputs, with a clear mandate that the software platform should be extensible to support outputs of assessment, learning and teaching, as well as a range of other materials. The project team led the procurement of a suitable software platform, intraLibrary, and this was implemented in June 2008. Up until this point, the project team had concentrated the bulk of their activities on the procurement and also on advocacy activities. The result of the latter has been that the repository already has a high profile within the University. Since the commissioning of IntraLibrary in the Summer of 2008, the project team has concentrated on working with the project consultancy team to agree appropriate policies and procedures. The team has also worked closely with Intrallect, and adapted open source applications developed by other JISC projects, to configure IntraLibrary to function more effectively as an open access research repository. Procurement of full text content has followed the pattern exhibited elsewhere in the sector. A number of full text articles are available within the Repository. However, to date the bulk of contributions have been in citation format. The University Research Office is very supportive of the project, and are convinced of the potential of the Repository to raise the profile of research at the University. It is hope that this commitment, combined with the already high profile of the Repository, will lead to higher levels of full text deposit. The next development of the Repository will be to store and make accessible learning objects. Again, a number of learning objects are already held in the repository, and in addition the University’s Pro Vice Chancellor for Assessment Learning and Teaching and the Dean of Partnerships for Students are both supportive of a drive to populate the Repository with existing content held in the University’s VLE. A number of other uses for the Repository have already been identified and will be implemented in due course.

Libraries have explored opportunities for successful resource-sharing initiatives. Makerere University Library (Maklib) is not an exception to the challenge. It is a daunting question that has called for a scan through available options. In pursuit of integrating ICTs in library functions, Maklib implemented an institutional repository (MakIR) in 2006. In 2014 Maklib upgraded MakIR to run on DSpace 4.2 version, which came with digital collection-discovery advantages that supported resource sharing. Two specific DSpace features were tested and proven to be useful for the resource-sharing purpose, namely: ‘request a copy’ and “email subscriptions”. Between 2015 and 2016, the three Librarians who manage the repository reported to have received at least one email notification request every week, on average, for a copy of a document in MakIR collections from an online user. Given its online discoverability, DSpace-driven MakIR has proved its usability to support resource-sharing efforts....

The reasons for creating a digital repository of separate department at university are discussed from the perspective of intent and initial planning. An attempt to identify the broad requirements concerning the development of a departmental repository is reported. General considerations about policies and functional requirements are outlined with respect to the institution context. Technical and system issues are briefly discussed.

On the last weekend of October, the British Library became the victim of a major cyber-attack. Essential digital services including the BL catalogue, website and online learning resources went dark, with research services like the EThOS collection of more than 600,000 doctoral theses suddenly unavailable. The BL state that they anticipate restoring more services in the next few weeks, but disruption to certain services is now expected to persist for several months. For the latest news on the attack and information on the restoration of services, please follow the BL blog here:  Knowledge Matters blog  and access the LibGuide page here:  British Library Outage Update - Electronic Legal Deposit - LibGuides at University of Cambridge Subject Libraries

A full list of resources for searching theses online is provided by the Cambridge A-Z, available here .

Finding a cambridge phd thesis online via the institutional repository.

The University's institutional repository, Apollo , holds full-text digital versions of over 11,000 Cambridge PhD theses and is a rapidly growing collection deposited by Cambridge Ph.D. graduates. Theses in Apollo can be browsed via this link . More information on how to access theses by University of Cambridge students can be found on the access to Cambridge theses webpage.   The requirement for impending PhD graduates to deposit a digital version in order to graduate means the repository will be increasing at a rate of approximately 1,000 per year from this source.   About 200 theses are added annually through requests to make theses Open Access or via requests to digitize a thesis in printed format.

Locating and obtaining a copy of a Cambridge PhD thesis (not yet available via the repository)

Theses can be searched in iDiscover .  Guidance on searching for theses in iDiscover can be found here .   Requests for consultation of printed theses, not available online, should be made at the Manuscripts Reading Room (Email:  [email protected] Telephone: +44 (0)1223 333143).   Further information on the University Library's theses, dissertations and prize essays collections can be consulted at this link .

Researchers can order a copy of an unpublished thesis which was deposited in print form either through the Library’s  Digital Content Unit via the image request form , or, if the thesis has been digitised, it may be available in the Apollo repository. Copies of theses may be provided to researchers in accordance with the  law  and in a manner that is common across UK libraries.  The law allows us to provide whole copies of unpublished theses to individuals as long as they sign a declaration saying that it is for non-commercial research or private study.

How to make your thesis available online through Cambridge's institutional repository

Are you a Cambridge alumni and wish to make your Ph.D. thesis available online? You can do this by depositing it in Apollo the University's institutional repository.

UK Theses and Dissertations

Electronic copies of Ph.D. theses submitted at over 100 UK universities are obtainable from EThOS , a service set up to provide access to all theses from participating institutions. It achieves this by harvesting e-theses from Institutional Repositories and by digitising print theses as they are ordered by researchers using the system. Over 250,000 theses are already available in this way. Please note that it does not supply theses submitted at the universities of Cambridge or Oxford although they are listed on EThOS.

Registration with EThOS is not required to search for a thesis but is necessary to download or order one unless it is stored in the university repository rather than the British Library (in which case a link to the repository will be displayed). Many theses are available without charge on an Open Access basis but in all other cases, if you are requesting a thesis that has not yet been digitised you will be asked to meet the cost. Once a thesis has been digitised it is available for free download thereafter.

When you order a thesis it will either be immediately available for download or writing to hard copy or it will need to be digitised. If you order a thesis for digitisation, the system will manage the process and you will be informed when the thesis is available for download/preparation to hard copy.

coventry university thesis repository

See the Search results section of the  help page for full information on interpreting search results in EThOS.

EThOS is managed by the British Library and can be found at http://ethos.bl.uk . For more information see About EThOS .

World-wide (incl. UK) theses and dissertations

Electronic versions of non-UK theses may be available from the institution at which they were submitted, sometimes on an open access basis from the institutional repository. A good starting point for discovering freely available electronic theses and dissertations beyond the UK is the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD) , which facilitates searching across institutions. Information can also usually be found on the library web pages of the relevant institution.

The DART Europe etheses portal lists several thousand full-text theses from a group of European universities.

The University Library subscribes to the ProQuest Dissertations and Theses  (PQDT) database which from August 31 2023 is accessed on the Web of Science platform.  To search this index select it from the Web of Science "Search in" drop-down list of databases (available on the Documents tab on WoS home page)

PQDT includes 2.4 million dissertation and theses citations, representing 700 leading academic institutions worldwide from 1861 to the present day. The database offers full text for most of the dissertations added since 1997 and strong retrospective full text coverage for older graduate works. Each dissertation published since July 1980 includes a 350-word abstract written by the author. Master's theses published since 1988 include 150-word abstracts.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The University Library only subscribes to the abstracting & indexing version of the ProQuest Dissertations and Theses database and NOT the full text version.  A fee is payable for ordering a dissertation from this source.   To obtain the full text of a dissertation as a downloadable PDF you can submit your request via the University Library Inter-Library Loans department (see contact details below). NB this service is only available to full and current members of the University of Cambridge.

Alternatively you can pay yourself for the dissertation PDF on the PQDT platform. Link from Web of Science record display of any thesis to PQDT by clicking on "View Details on ProQuest".  On the "Preview" page you will see an option "Order a copy" top right.  This will allow you to order your own copy from ProQuest directly.

Dissertations and theses submitted at non-UK universities may also be requested on Inter-Library Loan through the Inter-Library Loans department (01223 333039 or 333080, [email protected] )

A LaTeX template for a Coventry University Thesis, based on a Cambridge University Engineering Department template.

GR8DAN/coventry-thesis

Folders and files, repository files navigation, a coventry university thesis latex template.

I needed a LaTeX template to use in ShareLaTeX, now merged with Overleaf , when writing up my thesis. Since I couldn't find one for Coventry University I adapted an existing template. Being based in the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Computing (EEC) I used the Cambridge University Engineering Department (CUED) template as the starting point, though social science schools and faculties should find it applicable.

Ideas, suggestions and changes welcome.
