Fall 2024 Electronic Dissertation Workshops

Writing a dissertation takes a lot of work. Submitting a dissertation does not have to! The Libraries’ eTD@BC workshops for graduate students will prepare you to submit thesis or dissertation. Planning now can save so much time later, right at the end of the process when time becomes really valuable. This fall, there will be three sessions, one in-person and two virtual, all covering the same material.

Dates:
Tuesday, October 8, 6:30 – 7:15 pm, on Zoom.
Thursday, October 10, noon – 12:45 pm, O’Neill Library 307.
Thursday, October 17, noon – 12:45, on Zoom.

To register, go to https://libcal.bc.edu/calendar/workshops. Upon registration for an online workshop, you will receive a confirmation email with the Zoom link.

Topics to be covered in this workshop include:

  • The submission website, including a walk-through of the submission process
  • Important decisions and issues, such as eScholarship@BC, embargoes, copyright, etc.
  • How to ensure that a published eTD can be discovered and accessed by others
  • Where to get additional help

Graduate students can contact etd-support@bc.edu with any questions about the workshops. There will be additional workshops in the spring.
