WVU implemented on-line dissertations and theses in Fall 1998. Theses and dissertations completed since then are available to on-campus users running Adobe Acrobat, software that is available to WVU users of the Department computer system in the NETAPPS folder. Off-campus access generally is restricted to abstracts only for 5 years after completion. All on-line theses and dissertations are linked to the URL addresses as given below.
