but doesn't it look as though all they are doing is providing access to
dissertations that are already accessible via "on-the-ground-libraries" but via
the web? They are saying in their  "where do dissertations come from" section
that they get access to our dissertations through the UMI program...

is it "bad" coz it's interface is online - just throwing out some questions. I
haven't really decided what to "believe" at this point. I see this as one of
several confusing, problematic issues that arise in a "emerging" media
context/use.
