Research Methodology
Targeted survey population – Science & Technology Librarians
Different responses from ‘normal’ respondents (eg IR managers)
Specifically Science & Tech ETDs Focus on tools – bib record metadata, content,
search mechanisms Institutions and respondents
USTLG Carnegie list
Omitted own institutions Survey instrument – Survey Monkey

Observations (1)
ETDs are still in the development stage in both countries
US - theses and dissertations available electronically commercial database not necessarily available in IRs or available via open access room for IR growth in US
UK - universities have plans for developing ETDs They will be available via open access
Retrospective digitisation in both US and UK - will expand the amount of material available

Observations (2)
Access to ETDs End-users seem to be finding ETDs by themselves –
but are they searching for them efficiently? Electronic access raises the visibility of theses
resulting in improved collaboration Front line librarians (subject specialists) are not
serving as intermediaries in the search for ETDs; according to our survey public services librarians are seldom asked to search for ETDs

Observations (3)
IRs vs OPACs for ETD access?
Science & Technology Librarians not satisfied with current tools due to:
Lack of appropriate bibliographic control (esp. in consistency, accuracy, granularity)
Not enough ETDs available in one central location so have to search too many different databases
High expectation for precision and recall -- Subject Specialists are more demanding of search results than end-users – They desire more flexibility in searching than do end-users
Search differently from end-users; use more traditional methods?

Observations (4)
Education and Training of Front-Line Librarians
How informed are sci-tech librarians about their insitution's ETD program?
Are front line librarians being kept in the loop as IRs are being developed and ETDs are being included?
What is the role of public services librarians in the new world of ETDs? Is it searching? Is it training end-users to search effectively?
Is searching for ETDs being included as searching for primary source material in information literacy tutorials?
![Page 42: Subject and Bibliographic Access to ETDs in the Sciences and Technology in Digital Repositories and Online Catalogues: Perspectives from US and UK Science.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5515e665550346cf6f8b4f44/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Future Developments and Research
Future Developments of ETDs In the survey, one US librarian expressed
frustration at not being able to do a topical search for ETDs across institutions and also about not being able to search the IR and OPAC together.
Federated searching for ETDs?
Will centralized locations for ETDs, such as consortiums, help end-users and front line librarians search for ETDs efficiently and effectively?

Future Developments and Research
Role for Sci-tech Librarians in ETD world
Help IR Managers develop ETD collection IR managers need to communicate with librarians –
sharing wisdom Sci-tech librarians will then recruit for content Train authors to deposit content Train end-users to be effective searchers Help to create better designed systems for end users so
no intervention needed.Future work ETD development is moving fast – repeat survey to
compare progress in other disciplines and different countries
Further investigation of sci-tech librarians involvement in ETD programmes
