Showcase Your Research

The Michael Schwartz Library recently published 865 theses and dissertations to EngagedScholarship@CSU, the showcase for research and creative output of CSU. These include theses and dissertations dating from December 2007 to the present, which are also included in the OhioLINK Electronic Theses & Dissertation Center.  These published works are now openly available and highly discoverable to a worldwide community of researchers and scholars. 

Students can view a download count and receive monthly readership reports, which include information on how often visitors have viewed their work. The CSU Theses and Dissertations Collection can be browsed by college, school, or department. By publishing theses and dissertations in EngagedScholarship@CSU, they are also being harvested by SHARE*, which will give research done by CSU’s scholars and students added visibility.
