8 Library Matters 8.1 Deposit of Theses in the Library On successful completion of the examination of your thesis two copies will be deposited in the University Library by the relevant department for masters students, and by the Graduate Centre for doctoral candidates. The first hardbound copy remains in the Library for reference purposes; the second copy (if hardbound) may be borrowed by members of the Library, or may be sent to other libraries on interlibrary loan. If the second copy is digital, then this will be freely accessible online unless you have requested restrictions on access. 8.2 Author’s Rights a Reproduction As the author of your thesis you have a right to impose conditions restricting the reproduction of your work using the Library Thesis Consent Form. Unless you specify otherwise, the University Librarian has the right to make and supply copies in terms of Section 56 of the Copyright Act 1994. b Copyright In general, matters of copyright are governed by the provisions of the Copyright Act 1994. Copyright of your thesis normally belongs to you, as the author, though in some circumstances this may be varied. Refer to: • Intellectual Property Including Inventions and Patents, The University of Auckland Calendar (www.calendar.auckland.ac.nz) Third party copyright: If you have received permission to use third party copyright material (i.e. copyright material other than your own) you will need to have included copies of permissions when you deposit your digital copy. c Restrictions on access (embargoes) A thesis will normally be available for public consultation unless there are compelling reasons for restricting access to it. A period of embargo may apply to theses that contain material that is confidential or sensitive, but will normally be limited to a maximum of 2 years. Applications for embargoes are to be made through the Head of Department and Associate Dean (Postgraduate) to the Dean of Graduate Studies using the Thesis Embargo Form (http://www.auckland.ac.nz/uoa/cs-pgdoctoral-forms). For more information, refer to The University of Auckland Calendar. Neither digital nor hard copies will be accessible during the period of the embargo. Other access options for digital PhD theses may be requested as part of the deposit process (see Section 7.2e) 8.3 Failed Works Where a thesis or dissertation has failed the examination, that thesis or dissertation is not deposited in the University Library. Note also that where a thesis or dissertation has passed, but all requirements for the degree have not been met, the thesis or dissertation is not deposited in the University Library. Masters theses which are failed in the examination will be removed from ResearchSpace. Guide to Theses and Dissertations | 33
