Also:
An increasing number of higher education institutions worldwide are
requiring submission of electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) by
graduate students and are subsequently providing open access to these works
in online repositories. Faculty advisors and graduate students are
concerned that *such unfettered access to their work could diminish future
publishing opportunities*. This study investigated social sciences, arts,
and humanities journal editors’ and university press directors’ attitudes
toward ETDs. The findings indicate that manuscripts that are *revisions of
openly accessible ETDs are always welcome* for submission or considered on
a case-by-case basis by 82.8 percent of journal editors and 53.7 percent of
university press directors polled.
