Print dissertations for chemistry are located in Rush Rhees library, Level G100m at Call number AS38.664, and then in alphabetical order by author. These can be borrowed like books. They can be found by searching the author and/or title words in the catalog or searching on the call number. Searching the advisor name in quotes as a keyword may also find recent ones. Limit to the "River Campus Libraries" to see print only or to the "internet" to see ebooks. Most ebooks will not have a call number. Print dissertations were no longer required after Spring 2012.
