› A requirement to provide the Library with a copy of the thesis for immediate public access.

“89.4 Subject to Rules 90 and 91, a higher degree thesis lodged in the University Library or in a departmental library shall be available immediately for use.”

› A prescribed format for bound copies

“89.1 In all cases where a higher degree has been awarded, after examination of a thesis the Registrar shall lodge with the University Librarian one bound copy of the thesis, printed on permanent or archival paper.”(ibid)

A status quo

Untitled/ Marcin Wichary, 2007 http://tiny.cc/dzho1w

From this policy point of view there was already a mandate in place to supply the Library with a copy, however the format was prescribed and thus the status quo had remained in place.

“..a set of services that a university offers to the members of its community for the management and dissemination of digital materials created by the institution and its community

  • members. It is most essentially

an organizational commitment to the stewardship of these digital materials, including long-term preservation where appropriate, as well as

  • rganization and access or

distribution.” Lynch, C. A. (2003).
