>From Beth Matney:

A year ago, I posted information  about EThOS, a 
source for many (if not most) UK PhD 
dissertations.  Over the last year, I have 
downloaded 28 theses from the UK of interest to  
this list (see below), so these are now available 
for immediate  download. Unfortunately, those from 
Oxford & Cambridge Univ.are still  not available 
from a central source and Courtauld Institute of 
Art  theses are generally unavailable.

They can be downloaded here:  http://ethos.bl.uk/Home.do
Some abstracts are available from EThOS, or I  
have most in the 'comments' field  here

If  curious, you can find all theses in my collection  here:
