We have an account set up with ProQuest (formally UMI) to order dissertations online via their Dissertations Express system. Dissertations Express will supply an 8 1/2" x 11 unbound copy in about 2 weeks. This is much faster than the regular dissertation service and we can use our own quality binding. The price is $28.00 per dissertation.

To order a dissertation, first put a record into Scotty to get a Purchase Order Number.
