***with apologies for cross-posting*** Dear all, We are reviewing our policy regarding submission of theses here at Bournemouth University: we are currently considering the possibility of switching to depositing only digital copies of postgraduate theses. If your institution has switched to digital-only theses, I would be very grateful if you could share your thoughts on the following: 1. What were the motivations and benefits for switching to digital-only theses? 2. How do you deal with theses with special formatting (e.g. larger than usual, with enhanced images, supporting documents…etc)? Do you accept a print copy for these kinds of theses? Many thanks for your help.
