Query on MLIS and PhD dissertations and theses sources in India
by Salman Haider 19 Dec '17

19 Dec '17

Dear LIS professionals Apart from "Shodhganga" what are the online available sources for searching MLIS and Ph.D. dissertations and theses did in the library and information science departments of universities in India? In other words, if some LIS professional is doing MLIS or wishes to do Ph. D. which sources are there he/she may consult to see the recent dissertations and thesis done in India? The "Shodhganga" websites says "The UGC Notification (Minimum Standards & Procedure for Award of M.Phil. / Ph.D Degree, Regulation, 2016) dated 5th May 2016 mandates submission of electronic version of theses and dissertations by the researchers in universities with an aim to facilitate open access to Indian theses and dissertations to the academic community worldwide." My questions are following: 1. Is all the MLIS and Ph.D. theses and dissertations submitted by the students to Shodhganga? 2. If they do not submit it to "Shodhganga" then what are the prominent active repositories where students submit their research work? 3. What search methodology a MLIS and Ph.D. students should adopt to view the already done researchers in the LIS field in India? Thanks and regards Salman Haider -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
