Searchable Index to UK Anthropology theses- Updating Procedures
In order to facilitate access to UK anthropology theses a searchable index to them has been established. It is in the interest of every anthropology department, and of every doctoral candidate that their work be as widely known as possible. We therefore ask that the file be kept up-to-date by collaborative submission of new data. The procedures for doing this are as follows:
Please use the template below and send the resulting file as EMail (to
csa-c@ukc.ac.uk
) or on a diskette. I hope it is reasonably self explanatory.
Please leave the labels since we will need them to import the information correctly. Please start each category (eg Name, date, title etc) on a new line. Since the file will be consulted over networks from all over the world the contributions must use plain ascii text, avoiding unusual charactors.
Template:
%A Author name in the form: LASTNAME, First names
%D Year of Degree (and whether restricted and if so until when)
%T The title of your thesis
%I University (Name of the Institution awarding the degree)
%S Academic Department (Which part of the Institution)
%C City
%9 Type of thesis i.e. D.Phil MPhil etc.
%O Notes: Contact address, publications arising from the thesis
%K Keywords to assist searching (optional)
%X ABSTRACT: the abstract should be inserted here, and can go on as long as you need.
We can also accept other formats such as those of common bibliographic database programs such as Procite or Endnote.
P.S. We are also prepared to archive and electronically publish doctoral theses in anthropology in the online Intermedia Library. If you can supply the thesis/dissertation in any common word processor format, with illustrations in any common graphics format, then we can accept it. Please contact us before sending the thesis for the conditions on which this is done. We prefer that you make a few simple systematic changes to the thesis to improve its use on the Net, but this is not essential. We will also consider substantial Masters Dissertations.
