Mission The Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD) is an international organization that, through leadership and innovation, promotes the adoption, creation, dissemination, use, and preservation of electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs). The NDLTD encourages and supports the efforts of institutions of higher education & their communities to advance and apply electronic publishing & digital libraries (including repositories), thus enabling them to share knowledge more effectively in order to unlock the potential benefits worldwide. 8

Goals (1) To be the leading international institution for promotion of ETDs worldwide. To expand Open Access to ETDs. To provide and encourage use of innovative services, resources, standards, and technology for the development of ETD programs. To sponsor and co-sponsor ETD-related events regionally and globally. 9

Goals (2): Through those activities Institutions of higher learning will develop their own ETD programs by adopting the submission, collection, and archiving of electronic theses and dissertations, to their own and to international digital libraries & repositories. Institutions of higher education and their communities will become aware of the benefits of ETDs, including: 10

Goals (3): benefits: –facilitation of the writing process for students –increased speed and effectiveness of sharing / distribution of research methods and results –through advances in electronic publishing and archiving, leading to –improved graduate education and scholarship –and –reduced costs of ETD printing, processing, dissemination, storage, and preservation. 11
