While we can understand these items being out of scope of the depository program, we are unsure why they are not cataloged into the broader Catalog of Government Publications, which is charged with being a national bibliography as these thesis documents are coming from a government run institution.

Posted by LostDocs in Found | No Comments

Editor’s Note: The item below was re-reported on April 16, 2010 by Vicki Tate.

Editor’s Note 6/12/2010: A record matching this item was created in the Catalog of Government Publications on April 19, 2010, three days after the April 2010 report was received by GPO. We are giving GPO the benefit of the doubt and counting the cataloging time as three days instead of two years in case the first report went astray.
