Harvard College Thesis Repository
Not long ago we reported Harvard faculty’s important decision to make all their members’ research open access. Now some students are joining the movement. The Harvard College Thesis Repository, just established, allows those undergraduate students who wish to upload their senior theses to a database accessible by everyone. At the moment there are perhaps a dozen theses there all told; but I imagine that in time this could prove to be a useful source of research in a variety of academic fields (none of which is law, strictly speaking). If you haven’t read a senior thesis from a good university, you may not appreciate the high quality of these dissertations.
It probably wouldn’t hurt to point back to Ted’s previous post on the Canadian thesis repository initiative, in case some slawyers are unaware of that project.
