eThesis Policy
The following policy was endorsed by the Research Graduate School Committee meeting no. 4/2006 of 5/05/06.
- The worldwide research community will have access to the theses’ bibliographic details, titles, content and abstracts, and, subject to any embargo, access to the full text.
- The Library will cease sending out microfiche or paper copies of theses unless specifically requested by the user. There will be a fee charged to the user for delivering a non digital format.
- An embargo of three years or longer may be placed on the full text of a thesis, as is the current practice (noting that the abstract, title, content pages and bibliographic details of embargoed theses will be available online).
- Author of theses will add a copyright notice to the front of their manuscript, acknowledging that they have not knowingly added copyright content to their work without the owner’s permission.
- A procedure to manage the take down of inadvertent exposure of third party material will be established by the library in consultation with the University Copyright Officer.
