As well as being valuable sources of information doctoral and masters theses serve to raise the profile and promote the work of individual researchers during the early years of their careers. Massey graduates are now able to deposit electronic copies of their theses into the University's digital repository - DigitalCommons@Massey. Theses can be submitted as either Word or PDF files and must be the final version after all changes have been made and participation is not restricted to recent graduates - in fact anyone who has their work in electronic format should consider submitting it as a contribution to the community. Even embargoed theses can be held - only the title and abstract will be accessible until the period of embargo has ended.
Theses held in the repository will be fully accessible to Google searchers and it is intended that coverage will extend to Google Scholar in the future.
