Abstract

The Australian Digital Theses (ADT) program has been designed to promote and increase access to the research output of Australian higher degree research students.
ADT was initially developed by a group of seven Australian universities, and is based on the work of the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD) and the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and uses a Web form to allow students to deposit their thesis electronically in PDF, to be accessible via both a local university interface, and the National ADT Database. About 500 Australian theses are now available on ADT.
