Searchable Index to UK Anthropology theses
With the help of a small grant from the ESRC and with the kind permission
of ASLIB and the R.A.I. (for some of the older data) a bibliography of
(mainly) post-1970 British social anthropology doctorates including
abstracts is being made available on Internet using the UKC World Wide Web
Server (URL "http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/Theses/"). Currently this information is
only available in the annual ASLIB Index to UK Theses and on a
non-networkable CD. This project makes the data available world-wide via
the Internet in a form that can be easily searched and has incorporated
abstracts and titles not included on the ASLIB CD. It still reflects,
however, the arbitrariness of the ASLIB classification: some theses from
Social Anthropology departments have been classed as e.g. comparative
religion and not cross-indexed so we have not been able to include them
(yet).
searching will get better soon - once we get to grips with freewais!
