Did you know that we now have more than 2500 theses online? http://www.digitool.uct.ac.za

We are approximately 180 items away from having a complete collection of theses from 2010, the 2011 collection is complete and available and the 2012 collection is in process (currently 99 theses are available).

Here are some tips for finding theses on our repository:

Type in the author’s name or some words from the title in the “Simple Search” box on the main page of DigiTool (http://www.digitool.uct.ac.za)

Use the “Advanced Search” tab to find a list of 2012 theses by typing “2012” in one of the field boxes and clicking “PDF” in the “File Format” box.

You can email a link to the thesis by clicking on the title of the thesis to get to the page displaying its metadata. Click on the envelope icon to display a box that will enable you to email the link. Fill in the fields and click “Send”.
