Can I get a digitized copy of a thesis or dissertation that is only available in print?

If the ASU Library only has paper copies of a thesis or dissertation, and if the item was not submitted by the author to ProQuest Dissertations & Theses...

• You may submit an Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) request for the item. We will try to find a copy for you to borrow.
