Australasian Digital Theses Program
 |
The ADT Program is a national collaboration set up to create and maintain a database of digital versions of Australian and New Zealand research theses. The main goal of this program is to increase the availability of graduate research outputs by making full-text theses accessible via the Internet. |
Eligibility
At La Trobe, this program is voluntary and all PhD, Masters by research, and professional doctorate graduates can add their theses to the ADT database. The deposit process is mediated by Library staff.
Requirements
The final university-approved version of your thesis in a computer file format will be needed. This version must be identical to the print copy held in the Library. Your file/s will be converted to the required format (pdf) and you will be asked to fill in a simple authorisation form for the Library to place your thesis on the Web.
Restrictions
If needed, access to your thesis can be fully or partially restricted, i.e. to La Trobe staff and students only. The access restrictions can be for a set period of time.
