A related question to all : Is there a way to know how many national dissertations are completed in LIS on an annual basis ? Other than checking Proquest Dissertations & Abstracts by school etc ? and by specializations also? This question may have been asked previously, just wondering about this in terms of ALISE -is this something that is also maintained somewhere still? I know that Arthur Young used to maintain a bibliography of dissertations & theses The last edition I have is from 1988 the 3rd revised edition: there may be others more recent-? American Library History: A Bibliography of Dissertations & Theses Arthur P. Young ISBN 0810821389 "This third revised edition is based on Michael H. Harris' A Guide to Research in American Library History (Scarecrow, 1968; 2d edition, 1974) Thank you, Karen On 7/11/11, Toni Carbo <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > These are all posted on the ALISE Website back to 1996 when the award was > first granted.
