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. -
Dissertations

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.) -
Web
of Science This database contains cited references
in the Social Sciences from 1956 to the present; in the
Humanities, from 1975 to the present; and in the Sciences,
from 1955 to the present. It is best to simultaneously
search all three (which is the default). Use the "Cited
Reference Search" to find articles that cite an
author or work and obtain a comprehensive bibliography
of the author's works: articles, books, communications,
proceedings papers, etc. Searches may also lead to related
records and articles with citations in common. For instructions,
click on "Information for New Users." Results
may be printed, saved to a text file, exported in a delimited
format for import into personal bibliographic programs
such as EndNote or ProCite, or may be sent via email.
