| Description | Formerly known as Dissertation Abstracts,
the PQDT database contains over 2 million records. Doctoral dissertations: 1861-present; masters theses: 1988-present (selective coverage, since many institutions do not submit masters theses for inclusion). Online abstracts for dissertations available since July 1980, full text since 1997. (Abstracts for dissertations prior to July 1980 are available only in the
printed editions of Dissertation Abstracts). PQDT covers more than 90% of North American doctoral dissertations plus growing international coverage.

Instead see cIRcle: UBC's information repository.
