Answer
WKU Libraries subscribes to the Dissertations and Theses Full Text database, the largest collection of dissertations available. You can log in to this database through the library website. You can also search the free international NDLTD - Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations.
To find paper copies of a dissertation or thesis written by a WKU student or scholar, use the One-Search Library Catalog. Enter the title of the work in the search box, or go to the advanced search and add the title and the author(s) of the work.
You can find electronic copies of all recent and many historical WKU dissertations and theses in TopSCHOLAR, WKU’s institutional repository.
