The goals of Virginia Tech's
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Initiative (EDT) are to
(1) help graduate students learn about electronic publishing
and digital libraries and how to apply that knowledge as
they engage in their research and build and submit their own
ETDs, (2) help universities learn about digital libraries as
they collect, catalog, archive and make ETDs accessible to
scholars worldwide, and (3) help universities learn how to
unlock the potential of their intellectual property and
productions so that graduate education can improve through
more timely and effective sharing of graduate research
results. Toward this end, Virginia Tech develops written
documents, extensive WWW materials, and a distributed
education and evaluation program in which universities
accept responsibility for local support of the
initiative.
