e-Thesis Archiving: A Report and Training Resources

The OBF Project recognised that the archving and preservation of eThesis was as areas of significant concern, with the Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) identifying eThesis as an endangered object in need of further study.

This has led to two major pieces or work - conducted in conjunction with the DPC - a report on eThesis archiving practices and an Open Education Resources Pack to help train and better inform university repository managers.

A report of a related discussion about e-Thesis Preservation held at iPRES2026 is also available here.
