About
Note: Development work underway. The ETDs@Harvard project supports the implementation of the ProQuest ETD Service. Work remains to complete the ETD pipeline so that we can provide robust discovery and preservation. This includes adding metadata records to Alma, depositing ETD files into DRS, and adding holding records to the Alma bib record once the ETD assets are in DRS.
