Once the thesis/dissertation has been digitized, it will be submitted to SUNScholar and can then be accessed online, provided that no embargo applies.

 * 4) A note will be added to the item in SUNScholar to indicate by whom the digitisation was requested (for administrative purposes only, and not for public viewing).
