The idea of E- Theses and Dissertations (ETD) is coming up in International scenario,
which can be easily located, readily accessible and delivered over the web. This paper
analyzing the opinions of selected Ph D Researchers and Guides from selected Indian
Universities on Copyright and IPR issues related to ETDs. On the basis of the output, the
paper suggests that Universities can start collecting e-format of theses, creating a digital
archive for easy access. But in terms of access, still only a minimum majority is favoring
online global access to Indian research. This may be because of Copy Right Issues,
Chances of Plagiarism and Poor Quality in Research, which may be solved through policy
frameworks and enhancing standards through national agencies like UGC at national
level. |
