Getting theses from EthOS

Electronic Theses Online (EThOs), provided by the British Library, is the UK's national thesis service, aiming to provide access to as many of the UK's doctoral research theses as possible. 
The database hosts the full text of many theses online without a fee for downloading. Of those not available online, many are available to be ordered for scanning for a fee. If you find a thesis that you would like to have scanned, please be in touch with your Academic Liaison Librarian, because the library will pay to have that thesis digitzed on your behalf. Scanning usually takes around 3 weeks and you'll get an email when the full text is available to download.

The best part is that EThOs then makes that copy you requested available to all, free of charge.
