Electronic Theses & Dissertation Awards launch

Through a special partnership, Scirus and the university consortium NDLTD are launching the Electronic Theses & Dissertation Awards. They will recognize high-quality postgraduate research output and the role Scirus plays as a vertical search platform in empowering users to quickly find and retrieve the most relevant and highest-quality prepublished scholarly material. Ten award winners will be selected through an editorial review process, managed by Scirus in conjunction with Elsevier Journals Publishing. The first winners will receive their awards at the NDLTD Annual Symposium on June 4–7, at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Scotland.
