Methodology
• Web-based survey– consisting of seven questions with pre-defined
Likert values – targeting on the ETD submission users’ population
• An internal piloting was conducted beforehand
• Submissions between July 1st 2007 and January 31st 2008 were used
• 78 out of 128 users responded (61%)

Main conclusions
• Younger users use the IR more
• Thesis type (diploma, master, Ph.D.) is irrelevant to the access policy selection
• Number of IR staff members should increase
• Fully automated metadata importing process is crucial
• Staff and user training is necessary

Future plans
• Process weaknesses detected will be rectified
• Full text searching capability is under consideration
• Automated batch importing system is under development
• A new survey will be conducted, involving all the university departments
• Establishing a strategic preservation plan
