It is usually possible to borrow dissertations and theses from institutions that belong to the OCLC Research Library Partnership; other libraries will sometimes lend dissertations and master's theses. The Interlibrary Loan staff can provide information on the probability of obtaining an item.
Many dissertations are now available in full text through ProQuest's electronic resource Dissertations & Theses which can be searched through the catalog. Many full text dissertations from the United Kingdom are available via EThOS from the British Library or via ProQuest's Dissertations & Theses: UK & Ireland. Additional foreign dissertations may be available online via the Center for Research Libraries.
