How can I find a thesis in the library?

Physical copies of theses/dissertations in the libraries

  • The Library website's 'Theses and dissertations' page (can be found in the drop-down menu in the ' Find books, articles and more')  lists all the locations of physical copies of theses and dissertations ( http://www.bris.ac.uk/library/find/theses/ )
  • The above web page also includes links to 'Explore Bristol Research' and 'EThOS' - useful to navigate our users to this page
  • Library Search should show all catalogued physical copies of theses (and theses deposited to PURE, except for most recent ones)
  • Library Search  - for print copies (up to 2018) and digital copies (from 2018)
  • Explore Bristol Research  - for theses submitted to PURE (including recent theses which are yet to be added to WMS/Library Search)
  • EThOS  - for theses digitised by British Library (E-theses Online Service)
  • Online card catalogue  - for old theses (we could also  ask RR to check their physical registers)
  • Print  doctoral   & masters theses/ dissertations held by the UOB libraries (including Research Reserve)
  • Including link to digital copies provided by PURE
  • If there is a record of a thesis (title, author and abstract) on EThOS, a link to ILL request page will be shown when an item held by British Library is clicked (it does not mean a digital copy is available: ILL team will advise accordingly)   
  • Data is imported from PURE every month (on the 23rd)
  • For print copies, the year of publication (on WMS/Library Search) might not be the same as the date of submission (on the thesis spine) (e.g. in the Queens Library)
  • All UOB PhD and research masters theses/dissertations are submitted digitally to PURE (Thesis Repository) since Sept 2018 (except for those failed to submit and those applied for deferral). Taught masters dissertations are not included.
  • Theses/dissertations deposited to PURE
  • Data is imported from PURE immediately after a thesis is validated
  • All doctoral theses i.e. PhD/ MD/EngD/EdD/DEdPsy/DDS/DSocSci   ( no  masters) provided by PURE (updated on an ad-hoc basis)

Information for researchers

Managing research data.

The Research Data Service is part of the Library and supports pan-University research activities to help realise the impact of research on society. We help individual researchers or major interdisciplinary research initiatives to plan, manage and share research data.

We're happy to help with data management plans and provide data management training for research staff and PhD students. We also manage Bristol's  data.bris research data repository , the University's platform for research data publication.

If you're new to research data management don't worry - much of what's involved should be familiar:

  • Saving work in a format that can be re-opened easily
  • Naming files so they can be found quickly
  • Backing up valuable data
  • Controlling who has access to data
  • Sharing data to help maximise research impact

To learn the fundamentals of research data management, take our interactive tutorial.

  • Interactive bootcamp tutorial - introduction to research data

Not sure where to start? The GW4 Research Data Management Triage Tool can help narrow down your question and get you to the right guidance faster.

GW4 Research Data Management Triage Tool

Please note that you will need to sign up to the GW4 SharePoint before being able to access the GW4 Triage Tool.

Databases are really useful when searching for journal articles. They search across lots of journals at the same time and their search engines are more powerful and advanced search engines than Google or Library Search. You may need to search across multiple databases to find a broader range of literature. They are trustworthy, scholarly sources with clear citation information.
