To find a thesis, go to JACOB, the law library catalog, and click Advanced Search.

In the "Material Type" drop-down, select Dissertations. Enter keywords into the search box (any combination of subject words, author names, or title words).  The results will display those that are available in print and online.

For those available online, click on the record for the thesis you would like to view and then click on "view full text."

For a thesis in print, note the call number, author, and title of the thesis you want and go to the reference desk to ask for a paging slip to request the thesis.  Theses are stored in a locked storage room accessible only to law library staff and must be requested using the paging slip.

A staff member will retrieve the thesis for you within one business day. You will be contacted by email when the thesis is available for pickup. Theses must be used within the library, but can be held by the reference department if needed for more than one day.
