Copyright
Students hand in thesis to the library in a book & a file format for preservation in the library
Library asks students on a written form whether they agree that library provides their full- text thesis database to users.
If students don’t agree, library doesn’t provide full-text thesis database to users
Problem to be solved
Students were not asked to agree on library’s providing full-text thesis to users before library stated DL project
With this reason, there are many theses without student’s written consent on library’s full-text service
=> Make an effort to let copyright to be revised in a way that universities have rights to provide full text thesis service without student’s written consent
