Communication Studies— Dissertations & Theses
- Database
of African Theses & Dissertations: DATAD
"For
many reasons, African research results are rarely indexed in
major international databases, a problem that is further exacerbated
by the inaccessibility of theses and dissertations completed
in the region, many of which contain local empirical data that
is not available in international literature." Currently
contains citations and abstracts from ten leading universities,
with more planned, in all subject areas. - ProQuest
Dissertations and Theses: Full Text
Through this resource,
you may access all available dissertations (full-text PDF files)
from institutions in the US and some other countries. Includes
citations for dissertations ranging from 1861 to those accepted
last semester. Full-text online dissertations from some universities
date as far back as the early 20th century; others are more
recent. It is not possible to predict which dissertations are
available and which are not. Some universities have digitized
their dissertations and made these available for free to all.
Some are subscription based. And finally, some departments,
schools, and individuals do not allow free access to their
dissertations and these are only available through payment
or Interlibrary Loan. (In these cases, it is still usually
possible to see in this database an abstract and, sometimes,
a limited page preview.)
