| Shrnutí: | The remote access of full text resources is easier now days as a result of increased sophistication and availability of
technology. Conversion of documents to digital form is a major milestone in the direction of making communication
more transparent and flexible. Theses and dissertations are supposed to be an untapped and under-utilised asset .The
emergence of ETDs and studies on their use and access reveal the fact that the user community needs the digital
versions of documents for their immediate research needs. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of
Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) initiative of Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam, Kerala. The general
pattern of information source access by the scholars was given an importance for the study. A pattern of descriptive
survey design was adopted to support the study and a questionnaire was used to collect data. More than 125
respondents were selected in random from major braches of subjects indented for the study. |
