The United States Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Association (USETDA) was established in October of 2009 by a group of interested ETD professionals within the United States. The mission of USETDA is to provide information on best practices, develop and disseminate important information on ETD initiatives, support the development of state-wide ETD associations, bring ETD professionals together at the local level to network and improve ETD operations, educate and make others aware of ETD issues, and support the expansion of the NDLTD and other international ETD initiatives.
Our website includes information about the USETDA, including a board member list and contact information; a list of ETD terms and definitions; and lists of resources for ETD professionals.
